Bocad 2025.2

Bocad is an advanced 2D/3D precision modeling software for the design of steel structures, composite structures and complex architectural facade systems. The software is developed based on parametric geometry and structural connection logic and is capable of simulating complex welded and bolted connections at industrial levels. Bocad software enables accurate analysis of manufacturing processes through layered structures for assigning materials, thicknesses and mechanical properties and supports international standards such as EN 1090.

In addition, Bocad software uses Object-Based Modeling and has the ability to integrate with pre-fabrication processes, prepare NC files for CNC cutting machines, and produce execution drawings based on ISO and DIN standards. Also, this software, with support for IFC and CIS/2 protocols, provides data exchange with other BIM tools and facilitates interdisciplinary workflows in industrial construction projects. Millimeter accuracy in modeling, an engineered connection database, and interference control tools are among its key features.
