Revit® Framing Software for Truss Design Engineering and Analysis

The complete Light Gauge Steel Framing Solution​

MWF Advanced Metal is the leading Revit® framing software for LGS truss design and fabrication. Engineer complex truss systems or individual trusses. Utilize Revit® loads, custom design criteria and more to model and manufacture light gauge steel trusses. Automatically generate detailed engineering reports, fabrication drawings, and material lists. ​

1

Limitless Configurations

Take advantage of the advanced element analysis engine and the limitless number of configurations available in the MWF product line. 

With an almost infinite number of potential framing configurations at your disposal, user defined templates make wall framing automatic, and fully parametric changes are made across all views and sheets. MWF Advanced Metal will recognize nearly all Revit® roof and floor profiles and automatically lay out full truss systems.

Floor Systems

Design complete floor systems and optimize your designs according to load conditions, local codes and more. 

Apply Revit® loads and complete floors analysis to member types and allow MWF Advanced Metal to suggest optimal member sizes based on local load conditions and LRFD, ASD (USA) or LSD (Canada) codes.

5

Truss Engineering

Design oddball trusses freehand using model lines, for further optimization and engineering in your final Revit® model.

Virtually any truss shape is supported either through automatic detection of the Revit® roof profile or by manual features allowing the user to manually draft truss profiles. Using the truss designer, inline, back -to-back and wall truss configuration are all supported, making design versatile and free of constraint.

6

Create Drawings

Optimize member selection and steel truss design and automatically generate engineered reports and detailed production drawings.

Create 3D framing, 2D drawings, material lists and more in just a few seconds. From there, easily export your entire project with framing data directly to a variety of light gauge steel CNC machines or robotic panelizing machines such as Howick, FrameCAD, Pinnacle and more.
