Now you have the ability to create some pretty detailed structural assemblies. It was acquired by Autodesk a few years back and was initially not part of any plan to be integrated into any collections but lo and behold Autodesk did us a solid and snuck it into the AEC collections about a year or two back. You might remember AutoCAD Structural detailing for it’s ability to fall over every 5 minutes (not quite but it had the impression it did) and then you would have to restart and hope that your work saved so you could continue where you left off.Īutodesk Advance steel is not that. If you haven’t heard of this and you are in the structural game I would highly recommend checking it out as it is a very powerful package when it comes to Structural modelling and detailing. One of the software packages that come included if you purchase the AEC collection is Autodesk Advance Steel. When working with AutoCAD Plant 3D, you have the ability to create basic steel structures but they are limited.
