FE DESIGNS

FE Designs is currently engaged in distribution of CYPE and CUBUS software products in India. Dexterously lead by Er. Amarnath SN, who is a structural Engineer by profession with over 20 years of Experience in the field of Designing Buildings in RCC with specialization in Pre-stressed post-tensioned concrete flat slabs. FE Designs extends free training of CYPE software to engineering students free of cost at their Bangalore office.

Built Expressions meets up with Er. Amarnath to know more about the software they deal with;

Can you give a brief history of your company, IT products and services you offer for the construction industry?

We are CYPE, a firm with more than 25 years of experience in Architecture, Engineering and Construction that works on a day-to-day basis to offer efficient and reliable software, adapted to the needs of industry professionals.

Throughout all of these years, we have compounded an intense activity in the field of engineering and the design of structures with the aid of forefront research in information technology. As a result of this work, CYPE presently occupies a leading position within the area of software applied to Engineering, Architecture and Construction.

More than 58,000 users have placed their trust in our products and services. This number corresponds to 80,000 programs acquired by construction and engineering professionals in various countries and the collaboration with 400 universities that incorporate our software in their academic and research functions.

Products :

CYPECAD
Reliable structures, very precise drawings

Program that carries out the analysis and design of reinforced concrete and steel structures, subject to horizontal and vertical loads, for homes, buildings and civil work projects. Its use guarantees maximum analysis reliability and optimum drawing design.

Metal 3D

Power, efficiency and productivity for steel, timber, aluminium and concrete structures

It is an agile and efficient program brought about to carry out the design of three dimensional structures composed of steel and timber bars, and their foundations, which includes pad footings, pile caps and strap and tie beams. Additionally, these can be redesigned and so obtain their maximum optimisation.

It has been adapted to national and international steel, timber, aluminium and concrete construction codes. The program carries out the analysis, design and check of the fire resistance of timber sections. Performs a seismic analysis of the structure (Modal Spectral Analysis) according to national and international codes. Second order effects (P-delta) are considered with wind and seismic loads.

Soil retention elements
Simple and trustworthy programs for soil retention

Reinforced concrete cantilever walls.

Program designed for the design and check of reinforced concrete cantilever soil retaining walls. Provides the automatic optimum design of the geometry, calculates the section reinforcement and carries out the geometric and reinforcement design of the foundation.

Embedded retaining walls.

This has been developed for the design and check of generic embedded retaining walls composed of any material; reinforced concrete, reinforced concrete secant pile walls, mini pile screen and steel sheet piles. The program designs the reinforcement in the case of reinforced concrete walls. An assistant is available to help introduce the data for the most common cases of several basements levels in buildings. A simple assistant is also available for buildings with one or two basement levels.

Box culverts
The solution to lower passages

Box Culverts is a program developed for the design and analysis of reinforced concrete box culverts used for underpasses, subways, and drainage works. They can be rectangular, trapezoidal or any type of polygon designed on screen, as well as being single cell or multiple cell elements.

The program can also design culverts made up of various aligned prestressed elements by defining the joints or those to be executed on site.

Arquimedes
The versatile program for Project Management

The most complete tool for Project Management: bills of quantities, project certifications and specifications.

Automatic quantity imports and certifications using DXF and DWG templates. Gantt charts and data export to Excel.

  1. How do you view the adoption of software and technology in the construction industry taking shape?

    Construction industry requires accurate designs, detailed reports and drawings in a short period of time, and by using software’s we are able to deliver the design related aspects pertaining to construction industry

  2. Which are the factors that are attributing to the growth of IT within the construction industry?

    The construction sector facing the shortage of skilled engineers ,relatively high cost of hiring staff at managerial level and various other financial crises which demands the increased use of high end softwares and these softwares which are able to produce results effectively in a considerable span of time and deliver services.

  3. Within the construction sector, which segment according you is embracing software and technology? Please quote reasons

    Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology aims at bringing all Architects, Engineers and service Consultants together on a single platform.

    Participants in the building process are constantly challenged to deliver successful projects despite tight budgets, limited manpower, accelerated schedules, and limited or conflicting information. The BIM concept envisages virtual construction of a facility prior to its actual physical construction, in order to reduce uncertainty, improve safety, work out problems, and simulate and analyze potential impacts. Engineers and Consultants from various disciplines can give their critical information into the model before beginning construction, with opportunities to pre-fabricate or pre-assemble some systems off-site.

    Quantities and shared properties of materials can be extracted easily. Scopes of work can be isolated and defined. Systems, assemblies and sequences can be shown in a relative scale with the entire facility or group of facilities. BIM also prevents errors by enabling conflict or 'clash detection' whereby the computer model visually highlights to the team where parts of the building (e.g.: structural frame and building services pipes or ducts) may wrongly intersect.CYPE works on the BIM technology.

  4. What are the specialized training required to operate your software?

    It requires no tedious training, a software which is very user friendly, even for a novice.

  5. Any other useful insight?

    Any software should be more versatile, simple, reliable and precise. In today’s fast moving world, all want desired results as quickly as possible. Being so, our software is very adaptable by anybody and easily understood in a very short period of time. Very minimal efforts are required to get used to our software. We, as, CYPE people can assure that CYPE caters to all the above said requirements.
