PlanWin / FrameWin

PlanWin is preprocessor which greatly reduces time (about 90%) to make STAAD & ETABS File. It is is used to create STAAD or ETABS file with just a click of mouse.

You can use either excellent graphic features to create plan at required levels or read the center line from Architectural drawing.

You can specify intensity of load on slab (live load, floor finish load etc.). It automatically creates beam around slab including beam loads based on wall thickness. Based on vertical load program automatically works out column sizing & calculates wind & seismic load. User has total freedom to give column designation.

User has option to specify column offset, thus reinforcement is worked at column face. There are more than 500 engineers using this software all across India.

Also new Features has been added making this altogether a totally new package. Key Features of the Software are Noted down below. Also in-depth details of each of the features are given in Knowledge Base:

  • Graphical User Interface, also available is context sensitive popup menu

Summary of PlanWin module

  • Greatly Simplifies Data Entry, From Complicated 3D Data Input it is simplified to Level Wise data entry.
  • Extensive Option to check all the data on slab & Beams for each level.
  • Processing of Data at each level to verify correctness of data like missing beams etc.
  • Creating new plan from existing old plan. Since no node member or joint number are to be given, it is very easy to modified any plan
  • Generation of CAD output where by all the information like loads, sizes, grade etc. are created on different layers.
  • Works out column loads for each level.
  • Beam Design for Dead + Live load to verify sizes
  • Importing Data from CAD to PlanWin
