ZWmech Structural Pro is an integrated plug in for ZWCAD. The ZWmech Structural Steel Detailing utilities for the drawing of structural steel members. It includes steel shapes (beams, columns and miscelleneous), beam—connections, stairs, ladders, bracing, hand railing, frames, welding symbols, beam loading designer and much more. Steel shapes include: AISC, BHP, CISC, DIN, RSA, JIS, IS, Chinese. The module draws both in 2D & 3D and generates a weighted auto—BOM. Some modules include auto—dimensioning of compoments to fabrication details. ZWmech works with all versions of ZWCAD Structural Steel detailing is now ease using the Mech—Q Structural Detailing modules. The ZWmech Structural Steel design add—on is both customizable and easy to learn. The software supports both Metric && English (Imperial) Units.
