THIS YEAR’S ANNUAL CONSTEEL MEETUP HAS ALSO TAKEN PLACE
The annually held International Consteel Meetup is achieving greater success each year. This year the event had nearly 200 participants and almost 300 registrants. Attendees could participate in numerous professional demonstrations, which included practical examples, featuring the works of Steel Lion Award applicants and the award-winning projects.
The day began with a theoretical summary comparing 6 DOF and 7 DOF finite elements, and The Steel Lion Award submissions were presented, with the winners announced. Next up there was a more practical demonstration on Consteel solutions for everyday engineering challenges. By the leading engineers of ConSteel Solutions the goal of the presentations was to show how the joy of structural design can be rediscovered behind the daily routine solutions.
After the lunch break, attendees could hear from David Lewandowski of bim.GROUP about the parametric design workflow of the Alba Arena steel structure, the Pangolin award-winning project last year. This was followed by insights into Grasshopper scripting and Pangolin case studies, concluding with a live demonstration of the wind simulation plugin, which was shown before its final integration into the software.
