The studios
Twenty-four studios, one drawing office
Each studio is a working drawing board: you change the engineering and the drawing, the numbers and the checks follow at once. Everything is drawn to scale with dimensions and a title block, and exports to SVG, PNG, PDF or Excel. Move your pointer over a card to bring it to life.
DrawSketch freehand or set a few dimensions — the studio draws it to scale with a title block.
AnalyseStiffness-method frames, earth pressure, open-channel flow, sight distance, Hiley driving — live.
CheckPass / fail against the usual Australian criteria, with the reason when it fails.
DeliverSVG, PNG, A3 PDF, DXF and Excel workbooks with live formulas.
