most popular software for carpentry

[maxopus]

Obviously there was a misunderstanding that led to you being offended and that was not my intention. I just wanted to point out that with all the software, even with the tecnigraph, you can make structures, of course! but if 95% of the designers/projectists, do not use programs like solidworks that reasons there might be? I don't want to be repetitive, but maybe we should read the whole forum.
solidworks is a super mechanical program but the topic is totally different. in mechanics (I have a long enough!!!!!!) you have totally different needs from those of carpentry.
Anyway, if you can use (and you're happy with that) just one sw to do everything, I can only compliment, even if I believe it little.
Say hi.

I'm not offended, we'd miss it, just that some statements don't like me and so I react.
the fact that a cad is more used does not mean that it is the best for that sector.
we know well what packages turn in the cad sector and despite this people continue to buy them.
There are rent positions built more or less lawful in decades and there are commercials that manage with lies to defamate competition and to inflate customers who trust certain claims.
I have known competitors to ptc able to shoot caxxate inverosimili that if they were reported in a public context would be liabilities of complaint.
even vanna brands sold by god but on the quality of what he sold.........

the company is on sale and the offer comes from a company that deals with gps?
What do you think? will end up buying the technology of this product, to make it fruit in any other field?

I would like to point out something
the + big Italian and international metal carpenters are moving or have already made it to tekla
a valid reason will be there.

 

[Rudy65]

yes this is true but there are not only large carpentry.
take into account that for each large carpentry there will be at least 100 smaller ones that do not use tekla but other software.
I mean it's useless to take a hardware if you don't use it.

Hi.
I actually tried little tekla, but for what I saw it works very well if for example they draw sheds from morning to evening and maybe the production process happens all between tekla users.
therefore for a company that produces internally everything or almost works great.

if instead you have to interact with autocad users that are 90% of the designers, and the products to be realized are very different (from the platelets to the grilled, from the shed to the door threshold) then tekla becomes slender. It's like using a trailer truck to go shopping at the shop near the house.

Therefore for a large carpentry can be a good solution. for more eclectic companies presents the above problems.

gil,
I agree absolutely

This is exactly what I wanted to say when I noticed the difference between standard carpentry with different carpentry.

I use tekla from morning to evening for 4 years for design studies or carpentry that carry out various works from stages to bridges, from lofts to simple ladders and I can assure you that for those who do my own work there are not many better ones, the price is yes high but the equally, simplicity of modeling, good outputs (if well personalized) etc.
However with the hardware you can go at different speeds, the consumption (expense) is not the same but you can do the big and the small, otherwise if you use a five hundred you can do only the small, everything depends therefore on the needs of those who work.
I have chosen the ferrari and the results in these years fully satisfy me.
a good software becomes slender when it is not used to do what it was produced for.
This is only my opinion that comes from my direct experience in the field I have described, for any other area my opinion does not matter.www.studiofeb.com

 

[Rudy65]

cris74 what you say is correct but you have to understand how you were used before tekla!!! no doubt tekla is the best on important structures (...also bocad comuque is not less) but I do not believe on the medium small structures. but how much money did you spend on the tekla licenses you have???? ? You always have to understand costs and benefits. I don't think if you make ladders and parapets you would have bought yourself tekla also because to cushion it maybe it's not enough 20 years.

 

[cris74]

♪
as written in my place I mainly realize large structures so I need suitable software and tekla is.
certainly bocad or others are at the same level but my choice went on the tekla and as I have evidenced since its diffusion in my area I am happy with it.

 

[tmm]

we are structured like this:

10 resources: autocad+tecnometal,
5 resources: bocad
4 resources: tekla

 

[cris74]

we are a little firm with votes
What happened?

 

[thewall234]

No... just a little while.. Sometimes it is activated and then a little skewer...cmq I see that for now tekla is the most widespread/appreciated. ..even if cmq the votes are very few to make a real statistics

 

[gil]

the votes are very few to make a real statistics

Unfortunately it is so, difficult to have a higher sample

It seems that tekla has been sold.......... and now what will happen to tekla users?? ? ? ?
history has shown that these acquisitions after a few years definitely do not benefit software. (see robot and prosteel especially if companies are American)

 

[gil]

robot: taking autodesk as a revit propellate, but seems poorly interested in developing it despite the enormous potential. Don't you want to infect some software house partners?

prosteel: the software bentley took, they immediately released the version v8i marked bentley equal to the previous version. Then nothing. It's been three years now, and it doesn't seem like there's upcoming updates. b! this goes to all advantage of autodesk structure detailing that at small steps, without haste, is reaching the rival.

tekla appears to copy some features and let everything else die seems like a cabbage. but these days I expect everything.

 

[Rudy65]

on prosteel you are right but to say that in small steps it will reach "autodesk structure detailing" seems to me a little utopian also because the distances between the two are abyssali.
then autodesk besides giving it free has never developed any news worthy of note!!! !

about tekla I don’t think they will copy something!!! the problem is that when there are new properties future market strategies no longer depend on tekla!!! in a few years you do soon to stay out of the market.

at international level the software that will earn it is definitely advance steel. also because it is the only software that besides the modeling of steel integrates 100% concrete with advance concrete and calculations with advance design.

bhò we will see who the spuntera! !

 

[gil]

I agree that prosteel is a little forward, but I mean, not so much.
Can you give me a couple of practical examples of abysmal distances?

 

[Rudy65]

gil,
Since you have stated that you do not know how much you have ever used prosteel and structural detailing?

 

[gil]

little, only on computer tests, demo versions, presentations at the fair and down of them.
