Limcon

Faster connections, better designs

Quickly design and review your steel connections, such as beam to column, brace end, member splices, anchorage to concrete, complicated multi-member joints, and many more. Thanks to our library of international standard connection types, you save time and money by quickly designing connections and producing your CAD drawings all within one easy-to-use application. You can easily verify your connection results and quickly generate a concise design report summarizing all checks and connection statuses.

Limcon Capabilities

Comply with seismic requirements

• Design and detail seismic force-resisting systems, generating seismic loads according to the relevant building code. Consider these forces in the design of elements and, where applicable, the design of frames and the larger structural system. Enforce the ductility requirements of the selected design code in element proportioning and detailing.

Design structural steel connections

• Design and detail structural steel connections, including beam-to-beam, beam-to-column, brace end, and complex multi-member connections. Simplify the arrangement of plates, stiffeners, bolts, and welds with a comprehensive library of standard connection types. Easily compare the economy and practicality of connection scenarios.

Design to international standards

• Extend the reach of your business practice and take advantage of global design opportunities by using a wide range of international standards and specifications in our design products. Complete your designs with confidence thanks to extensive support of international standards.

Produce structural design documentation

• Generate structural design documents including necessary plans and elevations that are used to convey the design intent. Changes made to the 3D model are automatically updated in the documentation.

Produce structural details

• Produce detailed 2D drawings directly from design results established in the structural model. Customize the style and format of the drawings using settings offered within the software.
