Enquanto muitos descansavam merecidamente, alguns membros da nossa equipe permaneceram ocupados trabalhando em novas melhorias para o seu retorno à plataforma no novo ano. From new calculators to expanded section libraries and design modules, we’ve lined up some practical updates for you to kickstart your projects in 2026.

Check out the updates below!

Section Builder Just Got Bigger

Our Section Builder module continues to grow. We’ve added Direct Strength Method (DSM) factors for hat sections, expanding design support for AISI S100-16 and AS/NZS 4600. New supported sections include:

  • americano (CEMCO, ClarkDietrich, SSMA)

  • australianas (Lysaght, Metroll, Stramit)

  • visite um dos seguintes artigos (Metalcraft)

This means an even more ready-to-go and accurate design for cold-formed steel users.
