Any shape: towers that twist, taper, lean or step back; domes, vaults and space frames; stadium roofs; or your own geometry. Start from a template, describe it in words, or import it; then shape it in the recipe. Everything ends in the recipe, which the engine designs.
The center lines of the structure, one member from joint to joint: a 3D DXF (lines, 3D polylines), an ETABS .e2k, a CSV (rows x, y, z for joints, then rows a, b for members, numbered from 1; or rows of six numbers x1, y1, z1, x2, y2, z2) or a JSON {"nodes": [[x, y, z]], "members": [[a, b]]}. Supports: the lowest joints, unless the JSON lists them.
In progress Any steel frame or lattice structure: multi-story buildings of any plan (twists, setbacks, atria, cantilevers), roofs, domes, canopies and space frames on any surface, or any frame joint by joint. Describe it, start from an example, or write its program; the engine frames it, designs every member and tells you what it built.
The form program: shapes, parts (stack, lattice, members), zones and requirements. Everything the engine builds comes from it; edit it and apply.
