It’s all about the drawings. Until you’ve produced drawings, you haven’t completed the design. Now, with Structural Desktop, drawing production has never been easier.

Structural Desktop seamlessly imports RISA-3D models, automatically creating intelligent structural objects. Once there, the analytical model can effortlessly be adjusted to as-built conditions using Structural Desktop’s extensive tool set.

Construction Documents – Easy as 1-2-3!
Step 1 – Design your model using the interactive modeling and analysis power of RISA-3D

Step 2 – Import your model into Structural Desktop and adjust to as-built conditions.

Step 3 – Create drawings: 2D or 3D, detailed plans, elevations, sections, etc.—whatever you need.

If you wish to send the updated model back to RISA-3D for further investigation, Structural Desktop can do that as well.

Multiple Material Support
Both RISA-3D and Structural Desktop support hot rolled steel, cold formed steel, concrete and wood. What about joist girders, wood products, concrete L’s and T’s? Not a problem in Structural Desktop! Detailed, true length material take-off reporting is included as well.

Structural Desktop produces high quality, true scale rendered member drawings, not the antiquated stick drawings you get from some other products.
