Steelv8 is a revision of the popular shareware Steel99 MDL application by ProCADDj and Bentley Systems. This version is specifically designed for MicroStation v8. It places a steel section by reading a data file based on the included steel tables. The user has the option of placing a steel hatch pattern or color fill on the section member at the time of placement. The user may define independent color, weight, and level for the section outline and hatching.
This version now includes a new improved Steelv8 ToolBox
and Tool Settings Dialog.
The Steel99 MDL Version 7.1.4 for MicroStationJ
7.1 is also included with the application.
Steelv8 places each steel section as a group cell using the section name as the cell name. Since v8 uses long cell names, this is an improvement over the older Steel99 version.
Steelv8 includes 14 Steel table data files, including AISC-9th Ed, Metric-AISC, uk, and many International tables.
Steelv8 automatically remembers the last selected settings and recalls them for the user's next session.
Once the steelv8.ma file is copied to a directory defined by the Environment Variable $(MS_MDL), the application is executed by keying in MDL LOAD Steelv8.
The
Steelv8 MDL
runs in MicroStationv8 only.
However, the Steel99
MDL for
V7.1
is also INCLUDED with this product.
