Value engineer your design with PROFIS

PROFIS new features supports value engineering

Simplify value engineering with Checkbot and Smart Design

If you can lower your material costs and workflow costs, the result is Value for Money and an improved Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). For structural connections, Hilti’s PROFIS Engineering software is the key tool we offer to make Value Engineering and better specifications easy.

PROFIS now comes with 2 new features - Checkbot and Smart Design, which helps you overcome slow & manual workflows and high costs due to overdesign.

Checkbot plug-in for improved workflows

Simplify processes, improve data mapping and boost collaboration

PROFIS Engineering is integrated with the IDEA Statica Checkbot structural design hub. This gives you simpler, faster and more transparent design and calculation workflows in three steps:

  1. Export thousands of connections at at time from your finite element analysis (FEA) or BIM software to Checkbot. 
  2. Use Checkbot for functions such as status checks of imported connections, 3D visualization of imported members and loads, and management of load combinations. 
  3. Export your data to PROFIS Engineering to design your steel-to-concrete connections.

Smart design for anchoring to concrete

Swap trial and error for automated, optimized anchor calculations

  • Streamline selection of optimal anchor design for steel-to-concrete connections: PROFIS Smart Design feature rapidly analyzes factors such as loads, profile geometry, base material strength and geometry, and last anchor type to help give you the best, most efficient solution by reducing baseplate area or embedment depth
  • Advanced inputs option for your utilization goal (for example, >90%) or project conditions. See all compliant designs in descending baseplate size with one click and streamline final selection with sorting and post- filtering options.
