Engineering
Smarter than ever!
Patio3D just got a major intelligence upgrade!
It now runs 76+ engineering rules across 95 parts and components, using every engineering table in the plans, the manufacturer catalog and pricing, and available steel sizes and part limits.

With every change, Patio3D can calculate up to 17,000 viable structures, price every one, and automatically find the most cost-effective option in under 100 milliseconds!
It then updates the 3D view and generates a full material cost table, along with permit-ready engineering references on the fly.
And we’re not done! Our biggest design update yet is coming soon, with even more freedom to create complex shapes and layouts!
