Maximize your productivity with our most complete anchor design software

PROFIS ENGINEERING

An all-in-one solution for connection and fastening design

PROFIS Engineering Suite is user-friendly, cloud-based software that makes designing and analyzing structural connections faster and easier than ever.

Not just for anchors, PROFIS designs, calculates and analyses multiple fixings, including steel to concrete, concrete to concrete, and steel to masonry and baseplate solutions that are more reliable, more cost-effective and code-compliant. The software also comes with application-specific engineering training that enables you to unlock the full potential of PROFIS.

BENEFITS OF PROFIS ENGINEERING AT A GLANCE

Vorschriften einhalten

Enable compliance

Get peace of mind knowing that your design will automatically meet local codes and approvals. As a leading manufacturer of anchors, interpreting codes and putting them to work is our key ambition. 

Genauigkeit verbessern

Improve accuracy

Manual input errors mean costly rework. Get it right the first time by importing load cases from structural analysis software, processing multiple loads simultaneously and building accurate BIM/CAD models.

Zeit sparen

Save time

Use templates to design connections in minutes. Don't waste time researching – let PROFIS spec the anchors instead. And speed up communication by granting your entire team access to the most recent file in the cloud.

 

Effizient lernen

Learn efficiently

Whether you are an experienced or a graduate engineer, our technical training – covering application basics and advanced modules – enable you to do fast, compliant designs.

Anchoring to Concrete

Design complex and day-to-day structural baseplate connections

Use preset templates to design concrete fixings including post-installed and cast-in-place anchors, baseplates, welds and stiffeners quickly and accurately. With just a click you can analyze baseplates using CBFEM and perform rigidity checks to determine whether to adapt the design or the loads. Optimize fixture points and perform stress and strain checks – PROFIS considers applied loads such as seismic and fatigue and can find economical solutions for avoiding breakout using supplementary reinforcement. Smart baseplate design further simplifies your design process.

Post Installed Rebar

Everything you need to design post-installed rebar applications

Add or extend concrete elements whether you're working with existing rebar or missing starter bars. Solve concrete structural joints and splices, and then verify the shear resistance at the interface between the old and new concrete.

Need to adapt the layout or geometry of your PIR design? PROFIS lets you easily customize the diameter, embedment depth and spacing parameters for existing concrete as well as post-installed.

Concrete Overlay

Design for concrete overlay and post-installed shear dowels

With PROFIS you can dimension post-installed shear connectors and verify the interface between the concrete cast at different times. Establish whether your design has edges or is symmetric, and then define different areas of acting shear. You'll know your designs are sound thanks to intuitive 3D graphics that show how stresses vary throughout the connection.

Ready for installation? PROFIS has already saved you time by optimizing the layout.

Concrete Overlay

Design for concrete reinforcements and subsequently installed shear connectors. With PROFIS you can measure subsequently installed shear connectors and verify the shear bond joint between the existing and new concrete. Determine if your design has edges, is symmetrical, and then define different areas where the shear stresses act.

PROFIS offers an already optimized solution

The PROFIS Engineering Concrete Overlay module offers you an optimized shear connector layout to ensure the most efficient use of material and assembly time on the construction site. Decide whether you want to optimize based on the embedment depth or the number of shear connectors.

Detailed Report - Easily collaborate with on-site execution team

The design report contains all relevant information for the project team and authorities as well as for on-site execution. In addition to calculation details, standards references and product information, including article numbers and number of shear connectors per zone, the report also includes a 2D schematic with a detailed table for installing the connectors.

Anchoring to masonry

Design masonry fixings more productively and accurately

PROFIS Engineering Suite can help you design accurate baseplate connections using masonry-approved anchors. Save time with intuitive built-in templates that combine your on-site data with factors such as allowable tension and shear loads while considering load reductions and geometry requirements.

Select from multiple sizes and types of brick or concrete masonry units, adjust their layout and define whether grout is present. You can even create your own templates to reduce design time on similar projects.
