Improving production capacity and sustainable development in Proektsoft by implementing innovative three-dimensional structural modelling.

The purpose of the project is to improve the production capacity and to develop a sustainable delivery of specialized design and consultancy services by Proektsoft EOOD in the field of structural engineering, according to the European standards, by the implementation of three-dimensional modeling. The traditional approach for structural design consists of developing separate, unrelated 2D plans, sections, computational models and bills of quantities using separate software products. This creates conditions for discrepancies between the individual drawings and calculations and errors in the investment projects. Considerable time is also required for design at the expense of either longer deadlines or larger number of engineers employed for the project. For three-dimensional modeling, the design begins with the development of a three-dimensional geometric model of the structure. It consists of spatial objects that are assigned specific properties such as cross sections, materials, loads, and so on. It can be used to generate automatically the required plans, views and sections of the structure, FEM analysis model and bills of quantities for concrete and formwork. After the calculation of the structure, automated reinforcement design is performed and the necessary reinforcement plans and details for the individual elements. All design stages can be performed by a single software product with integrated modules, instead of using separate unrelated software products. This will eliminate almost completely the "human error" factor, which will improve the quality of the projects and will shorten the design time by about 50% - 70%. For this purpose, the project includes activities for purchasing of specialized software for three-dimensional modeling of building structures and the corresponding hardware.
