isDesign®
isDesign® is a single member sizing solution that allows users to size floor and roof joists, beams and posts by inputting span and load information. Innovative tools allow selection of the most cost effective solution.
If you’re an isPlan® user you can easily choose any member in your model and send it right into isDesign® to review job site changes or repairs. All loads and information will transfer into the isDesign® member calculations.
isDesign® provides all the features expected in a current design application and since all manufacturers are available eliminates the need for multiple applications.
SINGLE MEMBER SIZING FOR STRUCTURAL WOOD MEMBERS
Draw:
The isDesign® interface features an interactive member diagram that allows users to manipulate the model using the mouse. Users can change depth, length, add or change supports and even add holes right in the model.
All editable user inputs are right on one screen eliminating the need to switch back and forth between different input screens.
iStruct®’s Project feature allows users to manage all member designs and project documents and plans in a single location.
Design:
isDesign® will design members using either ASD or LSD criteria to meet U.S. and Canadian building codes. Users can manually add uniform, concentrated and moving loads to the member as well as link reactions from other isDesign® members. Fasteners can also be designed for multiply members including requirements for concentrated side loads.
Design different hole shapes in joists and beams. Repairs are easy using the location analysis tool to find shear and moment results at any location along the member. isDesign® can also check notches and sloped end cuts in beams.
Users can set custom deflection criteria as well as custom load duration factors for any live load.
Build:
It’s easy to generate material quotes with pricing right from the project. Batch print all calculations into a single pdf package. Users can choose between a simple one page report or print entire shear and moment diagrams or results from all load cases
Defaults for joist, beam and glulam designs can be saved for re-use saving time on future projects.
