How to... Generate a GT STRUDL® model from CADWorx® Structure

In this short how-to, Chris Bradshaw, Industry Consultant at Hexagon and Ravi Ozarker, Senior Product Owner at Hexagon, talk you through the integration between GT STRUDL® and CADWorx® Structure.

Structural Engineers should be included in modern LEAN workflows that leverage interoperability. The most common reason for engineers not participating in these workflows is the quality of information transfer from the design department to engineering resulting in management hearing things like “it is faster for me to re-build the model myself than to clean up what comes from the CAD/design department.” Also, a challenge to LEAN workflows is how the structural engineering department passes information back to the designers. Design and Engineering teams using GT STRUDL and CADWorx Structure can benefit from robust and well-thought-out interoperability, utilizing physical member definitions and both native input and industry-standard neutral files to not only have a usable analysis file from the design, but also allow the design department to review and approve or reject any suggested changes from the engineering department.
