Once your steel frame is analysed and designed, the next challenge is turning it into fabrication-ready detail: connections, drawings, and everything a workshop needs to build it. Re-modelling the structure from scratch for detailing costs time and risks introducing inconsistencies between analysis and fabrication.

In this third and final webinar of our series on steel frames, we'll show you how exporting your SCIA Engineer model via the SAF format into SDS2 keeps that link intact: demonstrating how you can detail a connection and generate fabrication drawings directly from the analysed model.

What you’ll learn

• How to export a SCIA Engineer model into SDS2 via the SAF format
• How to detail a steel connection based on the imported analysis model
• How to generate fabrication-ready drawings directly from the model
• How this workflow keeps analysis, design and detailing consistent end to end

Who should attend

• Steel designers and connection detailers
• Structural engineers who want visibility into the detailing and drawing process
• Engineering and fabrication firms looking to streamline the analysis-to-detailing handoff
• Current SCIA Engineer or SDS2 users who want to connect both tools

Why attend

• See a real SCIA Engineer model imported and detailed in SDS2
• Understand how to eliminate rework between analysis and detailing
• Learn how connection design and drawing generation work together in SDS2
• Get a clear picture of the full concept-to-fabrication workflow across both tools
