Service Pack 2024-0#
SOFiCAD 2024 is compatible with AutoCAD 2024.
Over the last year, we have generally improved the presentation of reinforcement schedules in -.docx format.
We also have good news for our French users who are interested in SOFiCAD. We have added the standard NF.ini for the reinforcement fabrics and the bending mandrel and there is a French user interface which is of course constantly improved.
The stand-alone SOFiCAD - OEM (German and English) has been extended by the Steelworks and Alignment modules. (You need an extra license for this)
In addition, SOFiCAD is available as a new stand-alone solution, called SOFiCAD-AEC. In this variant we use the AutoCAD Architecture Core as Original Equipment Manufacturer technology to build SOFiCAD with its Steelworks module. This new OEM is available as a perpetual license model and opens up the possibility to use SOFiCAD-AEC as a platform for other third party applications, or to run your own LISP scripts. A common practice could be e.g. that you can install the SOFiPLUS preprocessor over SOFiCAD-AEC.
