Free Prescient® Design Standard for Structural Multi-Unit Design

Prescient® Design Standard enables an active geometric grid-based building layout that accepts Prescient’s proprietary light gauge panelized structural system.  The application makes multiunit building design faster and more efficient.

Prescient® structure is cost competitive with lumber and provides significant cost savings over concrete and other steel structural approaches. Prescient® is a fully integrated platform – from design through engineering to manufacturing.  Prescient® seamlessly integrates each step of the processes more efficient and cost effective.

Prescient® Design Standard integrates Prescient’s proprietary panelized structural system and produces a fully detailed structural model automatically. The model is a precise virtual replica of the building's structure; a powerful tool for BIM collaboration.

Features:

• Prescient® SmartGrid tool streamlines the design process by snapping walls to precise grid locations
• Automated creation of fully detailed structural model
• Enables population of wall lines with Prescient’s proprietary structural system
• Accurate and detailed structural take-off and pricing can be accomplished early in the schematic design phase
• Enables Prescient project documentation generation 
• Integrated with Prescient panel, floor truss, and column manufacturing process
