MSteel Structural Toolbox

MSteel Structural Toolbox is a domestic professional auxiliary software specially created for steel structure design and construction. It integrates dozens of practical tools such as section characteristic calculation, connection node design, and component stability check. It supports domestic and foreign multi-standard specifications (such as GB, AISC, EN), can quickly generate steel structure calculation sheets, node details and material lists, and provides three-dimensional model visualization and data interaction functions. It is suitable for steel structure engineering fields such as buildings, bridges, towers, etc. It can significantly improve the designer's work efficiency and calculation accuracy. It is a lightweight professional toolbox commonly used by structural engineers. Friends who like MSteel structure toolbox come to Huajun Software Park to download and experience it!

MSteel Structural Toolbox Highlights

Intelligent computing engine

Based on the finite element theory optimization algorithm, the calculation speed is increased by more than 80% compared with traditional hand calculation.

Parametric design is supported, and users can customize variables such as cross-section size and material grade for batch calculations.

Multi-platform compatibility

Dual-mode switching between the independent running version (no need to rely on CAD) and the AutoCAD plug-in version.

Supports Windows 7/10/11 and Linux (via Wine compatibility layer).

Data security and collaboration

Project files are encrypted and stored, supporting cloud backup and team sharing.

Provides API interfaces that can be integrated with enterprise ERP and PM systems to realize the digitalization of the entire design-procurement-construction process.

localization adaptation

Optimize according to the characteristics of China's steel structure market, such as considering construction errors, welding residual stress and other practical factors.

Provides a library of typical engineering cases (such as portal frames, grid frames, trusses, etc.) and supports one-click calling of templates.

Features of MSteel Structural Toolbox

industrial building

Quickly complete the node design and verification of large-span structures such as factories and warehouses, and generate calculation documents that meet the construction drawing review requirements.

Example: In a car manufacturing plant project, MSteel was used to optimize the node design and save 12% of steel consumption.

public building

Assists in the design of complex steel structures such as stadiums and exhibition centers, and supports nonlinear analysis of spatial grid structures, suspension structures, etc.

Case: In a stadium project, software is used to calculate the wind vibration coefficient to ensure structural safety.

Renovation and reinforcement project

Provide existing steel structure assessment tools, such as corrosion damage detection, remaining bearing capacity calculation, etc.

Practice: For an old factory building reinforcement project, MSteel simulated the reinforcement plan and shortened the design cycle by 50%.

Overseas projects

Supports multi-language interface (Chinese/English/Russian/Spanish) and international unit system switching to meet the needs of the "Belt and Road" project.

Case: A Southeast Asian airport project undertaken by a Chinese company used software to complete a mixed design of European standards and American standards.

MSteel Structure Toolbox Features

Steel structure calculation tools

Node design: Supports rapid calculation of 20+ common nodes such as bolted connections, welded nodes, beam-column connections, etc., and automatically generates calculation books and construction drawings.

Component verification: Covers the stability verification of axial compression, bending, tension bending and pressure bending components, and supports GB 50017 "Steel Structure Design Standard" and the European standard EN 1993.

Seismic calculation: Provides seismic performance design tools for multi-high-rise steel structures, including parameter verification such as inter-story displacement angle, shear-to-weight ratio, stiffness ratio, etc.

Foundation design: Integrate independent foundation, raft foundation, and pile foundation calculation modules to support geological condition input and settlement analysis.

Efficient drawing assistance

AutoCAD plug-in: Seamlessly connects to AutoCAD to realize automatic drawing of node details, generation of material tables and intelligent dimensioning.

BIM model export: Supports data interaction with BIM platforms such as Revit and Tekla Structures to generate LOD 300-400 level models.

Drawing optimization: Provides standardized legend libraries such as weld symbols, bolt labels, section symbols, etc. to reduce drawing errors.

Materials and Cost Management

Steel library management: built-in domestic mainstream steel factory brands (such as Q235, Q355, Q390, etc.) and European and American standard material databases.

Steel consumption statistics: Automatically summarize component weight, number of bolts and weld length, and generate a bill of materials (BOM).

Cost estimation: Combined with the market price library, quickly calculate the cost of steel structure projects and support comparison of multiple options.

Norms and Standards Inquiry

Built-in specification library: Integrate 20+ Chinese specifications such as GB 50017, GB 50205, JGJ 99, etc., as well as international standards such as AISC and Eurocode.

Article search: supports keyword fuzzy search, directly locates normative articles and associates calculation modules.

Update reminder: Automatically detect specification revisions to ensure the design meets the latest requirements.

MSteel Structural Toolbox FAQ

Q: The activation code is invalid or has been used?

A: Check whether the activation code is entered incorrectly (case-sensitive) and confirm that the network connection is normal. If it prompts "Already used", contact customer service and provide the purchase voucher (order number, invoice) to regenerate the activation code.

Q: What operating systems does the software support?

A: The official version supports Windows 7 SP1/10/11 (64-bit), and Linux needs to run through the Wine 6.0+ compatibility layer. Not recommended for long-term use in Windows Server or virtual machine environments.
