Important information for active student users of FEM-Design:

We have created an educational version of our software called FEM-Design Educational. This version, in comparison to the commercial one that students have received until one, will have a watermark "Educational version" at the printouts. Additionally, files saved in commercial version of FEM-Design are not compatible with educational version and the opposite.

Therefore, we kindly ask all our active student users to download program in educational version. Fill up the form and you will receive an e-mail with the link to the program.

Due to the fact that files saved in commercial version of FEM-Design that currently is used by many of our students cannot be open in the educational version, we will keep servers running both versions until end of September. This will give you time to finish your current projects and start working in the new version.

From 1st of October you will no longer be able to run FEM-Design in the commercial version that you are using currently.

Using StruSoft StruXml Revit Add-In

Export from Revit to FEM-Design:

Before trying to export the model from Revit to FEM-Design, make sure that:

• all the elements you wish to export have enabled analytical model,
• the analytical model of the structure is consistent,
• all the elements you wish to export have a structural material assigned.

Look at the example on how to use the StruSoft Add-In in order to export Revit analytical model to FEM-Design:
