ProtaStructure Suite 2022 (v6.0.615) – New Features and Enhancements

ProtaStructure Suite 2022 Features (v6.0.615) New Features and Enhancements

ProtaStructure Suite 2022 Features is excited to announce the latest update to ProtaStructure Suite 2022 (v6.0.615), packed with new features and improvements designed to enhance your project delivery.

1. Indian Codes (NBCI) Now Supported!

Thanks to your feedback, ProtaStructure Suite now supports Indian codes, enabling you to perform RC and steel member designs, load calculations, seismic irregularity checks, and more, all according to Indian standards. With this update, engineers working with Indian design codes now have an efficient, reliable solution.

2. Communicate Members to Autodesk Revit

Moreover, with ProtaStructure Suite’s bidirectional integration with Autodesk Revit, you can now seamlessly share designs like pad footings and pile caps with Autodesk Revit 2023. This is a great opportunity to enhance your BIM workflow and ensure a smoother design process. Be sure to download ProtaBIM 2022 for Revit integration to get started.

3. Improvements in OpenSees Integration

In addition, ProtaStructure’s OpenSees integration now offers enhanced nonlinear static and time-history analysis capabilities. With this update, you’ll notice improved parameters and solution algorithms, making seismic analysis even more accurate and efficient.

  • For example, we’ve improved modeling for joists, cantilevers, and shallow beams.
  • Furthermore, better performance and convergence have been achieved for seismic analysis.

4. ETABS Export Enhancements for ProtaStructure Suite 2022 Features

Additionally, with this update, ProtaStructure Suite offers improved export functionality to ETABS. Consequently, your shared models are now more design-ready, which helps streamline workflows and minimize project delivery time.

5. New Modeling Features and Design Check Improvements to ProtaStructure Suite 2022 Features

To further enhance user experience, ProtaStructure Suite continues to provide tools that improve modeling and design checks, enabling you to work with greater efficiency.

  • For instance, walls now act as supports when inserting purlins.
  • Furthermore, basement walls can now be merged seamlessly with the new right-click menu option.

In terms of design checks, we’ve introduced several key improvements:

  • The “Seismic Overturning Check” now accounts for resisting moments in non-basement buildings.
  • Moreover, joint shear calculations now include cantilever beam rebars.

ProtaStructure Suite 2022 is here to streamline your workflows with powerful new features and improved efficiency. Therefore, stay tuned for upcoming webinars and more updates, including the countdown to ProtaStructure Suite 2024!
