AutoCAD:-
AutoCAD
is a semi parametric software tool that is used for drafting and 2D Design
mostly. This software is invented by Autodesk Inc. in earlier 1982, now they
published AutoCad 2015 their 29th version that is AutoCAD 2015. This is used
for making layouts of the residential or commercial buildings. It is world
famous software and used by all industries.
Staad Pro :-
STADD
PRO v8i is purchased by Bentley in 2005, today in market they launched Staad
Pro v8i Select Series 5. It a geometry based Analysis Software, all industries
used this at higher end. All Types of buildings are analyse with different
kinds of loads acting on it suck as Seismic Load, Wind Load, Vehicle Load in
Bridges. This software contains 70 Countries Codes from worldwide, and 30
Indian Codes Suck as IS456, IS 800, IS 1893 etc.
Google
SketchUP is the best ever software for work in 3D drawings and Rendering. One
of the main from its feature is that its licence is at very low cost and easily
google sketchup available. For interior and exterior design of buildings this
software is compatible in all directions. Mostly this software is used for
walkthrough purpose. It means we can see the virtual images of our building
before construct It is also called Rendering. This Software has a one more
feature that is Geo Location Access, it means we can upload our building in
google earth in any area, it can show the real environment of the surrounding
where you placed the building.
ETAB2015:-
Performance
Based Design (PBD) is a major shift from traditional structural design concepts
and represents the future of earthquake engineering. These new procedures help
assure that the design will reliably meet a desired level of performance during
a given earthquake. The fundamental component of PBD is nonlinear dynamic
analysis where an attempt is made to capture the real behaviour of the
structure by explicitly modelling and evaluating post-yield ductility and
energy dissipation when subjected to earthquake ground motions. ETABS 2015
introduces new special purpose options and algorithms for the practical and
efficient application of these procedures.
SAP2000:-
Sap
2000 founded about 30 years ago and is the most widely used structural software
in Latin America, Portugal, Italy and Spain. It is also very popular in Asia
and UK as well. In parallel the second most widely used software are StaadPro,
ETABS and Risa 3D.
However,
the grids provided in SAP makes it easier to create the geometric input than
with the StaadPro or any other software of the same kind. Dynamic analysis is
stronger in SAP2000 for example earthquake force applied in any direction,
automatic lumping of masses for earthquake, live load reduction, bridges
transient loads, Eigen modes and Ritz modes, etc. it has facilities for creep
and shrinkage of concrete. Its ability to solve heterogeneous soil-structure
interaction clearly differentiates it from others.
Primavera
Software, Inc., the company behind Primavera, is a leading provider of Project
Portfolio Management (PPM) solutions for project-intensive industries. The
company was recently acquired by Oracle.
Primavera
offers best-in-class solutions focused on the mission critical PPM requirements
of key vertical industries including engineering and construction, public
sector, aerospace and defence, utilities, oil and gas, manufacturing and high
tech, and IT and services.
Primavera
PPM products, together with Oracle's project financials, human resources,
supply chain management, product lifecycle management, business intelligence,
and infrastructure software are expected to provide the first, comprehensive
Enterprise Project Portfolio Management solution. This solution is expected to
help companies optimize resources and the supply chain, reduce costs, manage
changes, meet delivery dates, and ultimately make better decisions, all by
using real-time data.
