The Project Template

The Project Template tool is mentioned to simplify the creation and management of projects (documents). Users can create templates either on the basis of existing projects or from scratch, adapting them to specific tasks and requirements.

Project Template options:

• To preserve the project structure:
  

  The template captures the structure of the project, including the storeys and all the elements placed on storeys; it allows you to quickly reproduce certain configuration.

• To customize the project parameters:
  

  The template stores key parameters required for the design, such as the applied building code and settings for the meshed model.

• Load Editor:
  

  The template includes preset load cases and their settings, DCF and DCL parameters; so, it is possible to avoid repeated data entry and improve efficiency.

• A variety of templates for different tasks:
  

  Templates can be customized for different types of projects, such as metal or reinforced concrete frames, including parameters for creating the PRB, element connections, triangulation step and other parameters that should be considered when modelling a building.

• To adapt the templates for the building codes:
  

  It is possible to create templates for analyses by different building codes, while keeping all the necessary parameters.

• Default template:
  

  The user can assign a template that will be automatically applied to all new projects; it speeds up work and minimises errors at the start of the project.

Advantages of templates:

The unlimited number of templates allows the user to customize the templates for different requirements. It speeds up the generation of models, reduces errors and eliminates repetitive data entry. This approach makes the design process more efficient and accurate, especially when you work with typical projects.
