LIMCON v3 update (use of lower grade steel and bolt in Singapore)
In the event that Class 1 steel cannot be obtained from manufacturers/suppliers in Singapore, the design strengths of steel and bolt have to be adjusted as per specified in the BCA's BC 1:2008 circular (clauses under section 5.2 and 5.3).
To facilitate using lower grade steel and bolt, LIMCON users can now download the latest patch here, and follow the instructions in this guide.

Integrated Analysis, Design and Drafting Solutions for Multi-story Concrete Building Structures (with or without precast structural components)
complete design and detailing of
slabs, beams, columns and walls
3D static and dynamic analysis
" .... to meet the project targets, it is not how many tools you have, but how well the design process is streamlined to make you more productive....."
PTC SE CAD is an integrated Computer-aided Analysis, Design and Detailing (CADD) software for cast-in situ, prefabricated and/or precast multi-story building structures. It was developed to
streamline fundamental tasks and redefine traditional design processes of precast/prefabricated multi-story concrete building.
PTC SE CAD is the ONLY solution that enables structural engineers to leverage on the advantages of both conventional in-situ and precast/prefabricated reinforced concrete technologies for their building projects.
Superior Analysis and Design Package for Steel Structures
structures designed
using SpaceGass
Space Gass is a general purpose structural analysis and design program for 2D and 3D frames, trusses, grillages and beams. It comes with a full complement of features that make it suitable for any job from small beams, trusses and portal frames to large high rise buildings, towers, cranes and bridges. Items such as graphical input, polar coordinates, elastic supports, pin-ended members, tension-only members, rigid member offsets, and non-linear analysis are all standard features. [ more ... ]

1-day Short Course Proper Use of Finite Element Software in Structural Engineering Application: What, why and how?(7 P.D.U.) November 21, 2007, Singapore
In this one day short course, the advantages and limitations of finite-element-based structural engineering software are reviewed and discussed. Pitfalls, common mistakes and issues due to improper use of finite element software in structural modeling, analysis and design of building structures are discussed and highlighted. Various techniques and concepts of proper structural modeling were also presented. After attending the course, participants are now more alert and able to avoid common mistakes in structural modeling, analysis and design, as well as to troubleshoot and check mistakes made by others.
1-day ADAPT Post-tensioning (Building) Workshops September 25th,27th, 2007, Malaysia
Over 100 Malaysian engineers, including Maunsell, TYLIN and others, attended our post-tensioning workshops specially organized to update our industry partners on the latest PT technologies.
Both the latest version of ADPAT-PT ver 8 and ADAPT-FloorPro ver 3 are found to be very efficient and effective in boosting the productivity of structural design offices in handling normal RC, as well as advanced PT, designs, right from the start to the final drawing production stage.

ELEVATE 2007 -- inaugural release of PTC SE CAD ver 4 (3 P.D.U.)
More than 100 delegates attended this half day technical seminar on prefabrication and precast technologies, jointly hosted by Building Technology Department of HDB, China Academy of Building Research and Advance ConTech (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. Three renowned experts talked on the advancements and how the prefabrication and precast technologies are used to cater for the public housing needs of Singapore, and the important role that PTC SE CAD software has played in streamlining the design and build processes of past and future Singapore multi-storey buildings. A quick demonstration on the unique capabilities of PTC SE CAD in getting the right gravitational and lateral resultant forces [read technnical note] for good and complete detailing of structural members was also presented at the end of the seminar.
World Road Conference 2006 September 27th-29th, 2006
Held in Singapore and attended by more than 500 delegates from the world. Advance ConTech andForum8 showcased the latest 3D Realtime Virtual Reality Simulation Software - UCwin/Road. The realtime stunning and vivid visual effects of UCwin/Road made it the main focus of the exhibition.
Technical Seminars and Workshops on Post-tensioning Technology(7 P.D.U) September 18th/19th, 2006
More than 160 delegates attended this event, for which ADAPT Corp. V.P. Dr. Florian Aalami lectured on the latest developments in post-tensioning design technology, construction practice, economic advantages of post-tensioning and design software tools.
Dr. Florian also demonstrated the advantages of using state-of-the-art integrated solutions ADAPT-PT and ADAPT-FloorPro for the design of conventional and post-tensioned RC structures, in terms of design efficiency, cost and time savings.
