Working Steps for E3D Structural

Project Setup
Initialize the project structure, define specifications, and import necessary reference models for collaboration.

Model Creation
Place structural elements like beams, columns, slabs, and handrails using intelligent 3D tools.

Clash Detection
Identify and resolve interferences with other disciplines early in the design phase to avoid rework.

Drawings & Reports
Extract detailed drawings and material reports directly from the model for fabrication and documentation.
