How to complement the design of a bridge with SAP2000 in a BIM environment

1

Hi all,

I would like to introduce my Master Thesis in Civil Engineering. I am going to design a prestressed concrete bridge. It has two spans of 41 m and I would like to design it with the help of Dynamo.

I am a learner in the BIM world and I want to learn as much as possible. I have basic knowledge of Dynamo and I am an expert in SAP2000.

Does anyone knows if it would be useful to add some new software as, for example, TEKLA, or another?

Thanks in advance, any answer would be useful. If you need more info, I can upload it.

You may want to have a look at DynamoSAP, although I’m not sure how up-to-date it is.

Hi @alcape2

There is a custom package called Simplex package for TEKLA,SAP and ETABS that would get you started:
