Steel Joist
Steel Joist & Girder Series module for AutoCAD has been expanded from the K-Series Bar Joists, to include the K, VS, LH and DLH Series and Joist Girders. This series is based on the Vulcraft open web steel joist manual, and has greatly enhanced the capabilities of this module.
No data manuals to find and look up the dimensional information you need to draw a steel bar joist in AutoCAD. Create joists in 2D for details or 3D for presentations.
Besides the addition of the new joists and girders, you may now draw joists in plan, section, elevation (for details) and the complete joist for building sections.
You control end extensions, rotation, layer, color and linetype of all joists. Joists are created parametrically and made into an AutoCAD block (in section view) to allow easier editing of joists and keep file size to a minimum.
Built in intelligence is added to each joist for easy identification after placing it in the drawing. Special programs aid in placing, dimensioning and notation of joists arrays in plan view.
