Structural Analysis Programs

[dbakerstl416069]

Hello, I know this is mainly a RSA forum, but I was wondering if anyone could help me gain some insight into Revit Structure/Analysis Program links or at least point me in the right direction. My firm is just beginning to implement Revit Architecture/Revit Structure and as a structural engineer with the only experience, all be it minimal with RS, I’ve been tasked with researching which Structural Analysis program is best when interfacing with Revit Structure while also being an excellent analysis tool. I have mainly been seeing people use Robot, RAM or ETABS, but I know there are more. I appreciate any and all insight into this matter. Thank you for your help.

Hi Dan,

This site lists a lot of the products who partner with us to deliever analysis and design.

Other companies provide links with Revit Structure from their own websites or through direct request. http://bimapps.typepad.com/bim-apps/...ructure-1.html
this blog post details many of them.

For more information on the Robot link you can find that here: http://aec-projects.com/autodesk-rob...-professional/

I hope this helps give you a starting point and that others will share their experiences as well.

Thanks,
