MIDAS nGEN provides a comprehensive solution for structural engineering practice, integrating the total process from initial modeling through to final drawing and reporting. The software facilitates easy and intuitive modeling using CAD-tracing and auto-generation of members from 2D drawings. It offers automated analysis and design capabilities, including the auto-generation of meshed members for accurate results and the ability to analyze various cases separately or jointly. After design and analysis, users can quickly extract structural drawings, detailed reports, and quantity takeoffs by members and materials. This automation and optimization facility helps engineers significantly reduce the time required to produce high-quality design deliverables, thereby enhancing overall productivity. It is highly optimized for designing concrete (RC) and steel structures, as well as super-structures and sub-structures like foundations, with features like BIM compatibility and real-time drawing creation.
