Big news! We’ve rolled out Strucsoft for Revit 2026 (Version 2.43, Build 9370), packed with updates to make your everyday work easier. The star of the show? Panel Checker: a unique tool that automatically validates your wall panels for modeling errors, and gets smarter the more you use it!
From reducing mistakes to speeding up your shop drawings and fabrication timeline, this release is all about helping you work smarter, not harder. Download it today by heading to your client portal.
Panel Checker: Catch Errors Before They Catch You
Errors discovered too late in the process can lead to costly rework, wasted materials, and delays in fabrication. Panel Checker changes that.
This new feature runs in the background to automatically validate your panels during the detailing phase. Before you generate Shop Drawings or export panels to Onyx. Panel Checker identifies and flags issues around critical components such as: member quantities, connections, stud orientation, and hole series coordinates.
In addition to automatic checks, users can manually flag issues for specific panels. The tool provides both a Project Panels Overview (with automatic check results for all panels) and a Panel Issues Log (for manually added issues).
What does this mean for you?
-
Increased shop drawing accuracy
-
Fewer errors at fabrication
-
Improved error coordination and monitoring
The more you use it, the smarter it gets. Every flagged issue contributes to improving accuracy not just for your projects, but for every engineer, drafter, and modular builder using Strucsoft. This tool also lays the groundwork for future AI-driven features that will transform how users validate and coordinate panel data.
Modular Menu Improvements
- Floor/Ceiling Panels in Modular Gather Sheets: Generate drawings for floor, ceiling, and roof panels directly from Revit groups using the Modular Gather Sheet tool.
