Structural Scripting
Parametrics simply mean that the inputs of a script can be varied to automatically update outputs.
We can create parametric scripts to generate geometry, structural analysis and calculations. Scripts can be used within Grasshopper, on a web page or via an API for external programs.
Parametrics allow designers to:
Work with complex geometry
Automate calculation and reports
Create quick 3D connection details
Convert Architecture to Structural Models
Some examples:
The dimensions of a building may be stretched. A parametric script could add the new structural beams required automatically.
A parametric script could re-do structural calculations automatically given geometry or loading changes.

Model Conversion
Convert Models between Architecture & Structural without manual effort
As modelling becomes increasingly central to design, many are still grappling with the format incompatibility problem. Huge effort can be wasted manually re-creating and updating models in multiple separate programs.
While software (such as CSixRevit or the IFC file format) can assist in model conversion, most know from experience that there are several workflow limitations requiring time to overcome.
That's why we offer an online service which can convert your model quickly and accurately. The process can allow modifications on live projects with no impact to current progress.
We convert many models formats:
ETABS, Spacegass, SAP2000, STAAD, Robot Structural, Revit, Rhino, 3D AutoCAD, Sketchup, Bluebeam
