MIDAS nGEN

Main Features

Discover the main features of MIDAS nGEN. Explore the product's core features through a variety of content.

Concrete Building

CAD - based Modeling
In midas nGEN, modeling can be performed quickly and accurately using CAD files or grids. Place an architectural floor plan on a specific floor and automatically recognize CAD layers to generate a model automatically. It is possible to model members of various shapes considering eccentricity. The modeling method is similar to the CAD drawing method, so even first-time users can quickly adapt.
Multi Stories & Towers
Analysis and design can be performed for each floor in one model. For each floor, boundary conditions such as diaphragms can be conveniently assigned. The results for each floor in each building can be integrated or individually checked.
Various shape Design & Drawing
In midas nGEN, we can model various shapes and types of structures and generate drawings, such as irregular beam-column joints, step-down slabs, beams in contact with step-down slabs, transfer beams & slabs, etc.
High-performance Pre & Post-processor & Powerful Mesh Generator
In midas nGen, we can maximize the work efficiency with a brand-new pre & post-processing computational performance. Auto-mesh is possible for plate and shell elements such as slabs and walls, enabling rapid processing even for large-scale models.

Steel Structure

Grid-based Modeling
Changing the modeling environment to an arbitrary 2D plane from 3D modeling provides intuitive modeling like sketching members in drawings. Experience the optimal modeling method with a grid environment that can be conveniently used when modeling steel structures.
3D Shape Modeling
midas nGEN considers the connection between member types and automatically divides or merges members according to the connection conditions between members. Also, considering this construction shape, the users can generate the drawings, and utilize BIM compatibility functions.
Code-based Design Load
MIDAS nGEN supports seismic and wind resistance design. We can easily input earthquake loads and wind loads based on various design codes and review in detail how much load has been input. The user can maximize the efficiency of design work even for the complex shape of structures.
Optimal Design
Based on the target strength ratio for all design items, including relative deflection, we can perform the optimal design of steel structures to search the optimal sections. The user can control the size of the section by member connection conditions or section groups.

Underground

Design Various Foundation Types
midas nGEN supports the member design and drawing features for the various type of foundations. In addition, it is possible to design the foundation by modeling it together with the super-structure or replacing the reaction force information with the load on the foundation member.
Pile Arrangement & Design
Using the Pile Array wizard, we can automatically calculate how many piles are required, and we can optimally arrange the piles. After placing the piles, we can flexibly edit the pile position in case of revision.
Various Analysis Method
Two types of analysis methods for the mat foundation are supported. In addition, a wizard function is provided to conveniently design the foundation design of a pipe rack or tank structure.
High-quality Structural Drawings
All structural drawings required when designing foundation structures can be automatically generated based on design information. Create foundation plan, elevation including main rebar information, pile layout, and trench line.

Drawing

CAD Software, Free of Charge
The most significant features of midas Drawing are AutoCAD alternative functions and the structural drawing creation function. Most of the CAD functions currently in use are available in midas Drawing. In addition, midas Drawing provides an automatic generation of drawings using design information.
Generate Concrete Building Drawings
Engineers can create structural drawings at desired locations in real-time. A list of members, including rebars can be output for each section. In addition, midas Drawing provides longitudinal rebar drawings of beams, columns and walls, and the rebar arrangement of slabs. Experience an intelligent CAD feature by quickly adjusting the dimensions and text marked on the drawing with the scale change function.
Generate Steel Structure Drawings
The offsets and the cut backs of the steel frames can be reflected in the drawing. In addition, the entire steel members can be expressed as a double line or single line according to the user's preference. The CAD characteristics of all automatically generated drawing components are determined by the specified template, and the template can be freely changed and used by the user.
Quantity Take-off
In midas Drawing, the quantity calculation for reinforced concrete and steel members is provided in an Excel file. For reinforced concrete members, the quantity takeoff is provided by design groups and member lengths. Quantity by the strength of concrete and the diameter of rebars and the amount of formworks are also calculated. For steel members, quantity is provided by design groups and member lengths. The total weights of steel members are calculated either based on the center lines or based on the member lengths considering cutback.
