Design software.
For accurate, reliable planning.
The challenge
Construction technology is in a state of
ongoing development. Modern, eyecatching
designs, new materials and
special requirements to be met by the
building all present a challenge and
place high demands on facade design
engineers.
IT systems have now become firmly
established as essential tools for planners
and design engineers. They support
these specialists in many areas of their
work and help them increase efficiency
considerably, not only during planning
but also in the implementation phase.
Research and development
In developing this new design software,
Hilti paid close attention to the needs
and wishes of users active in this field.
They requested that the volume of data
needed for installation of the software
and subsequent updates should be kept
low, that it should be intuitive and easy
to learn to use, that frequent users
should be able to make their own settings
to suit their own needs, that the
method of calculation and the results
should be transparent and well documented
and, moreover, that other documents
and product information should
be quickly and easily available.
The Hilti solution
Hilti offers a series of design applications,
selection aids and sources of
information in the form of PC software
under the name PROFIS. The fastening
design applications of particular interest
to facade planning engineers are Hilti
PROFIS Anchor Channel and PROFIS
Anchor. At Hilti, we not only guarantee
the quality of our products, we also
believe that making the latest developments
in construction technology as well
as advances in PC software available
to customers in a form that meets their
needs optimally is a task of central
importance.
These PC applications feature a uniform
user interface that’s easy to become
familiar with. PROFIS is installed in
modular form and calculations are based
on the most recent CEN / TS status.
When entering your data you can
choose between using the tabs or entering
the data directly in the graphical
3D-view which, of course, can be adjusted
during use, as desired.
