Midas-NGen is more than just an analysis tool; it is a comprehensive productivity suite for the modern structural engineer. By bridging the gap between theoretical analysis and practical construction documentation, it minimizes errors, saves time, and allows engineers to focus on high-level design decisions rather than manual data entry. As the construction industry continues to embrace digital transformation, tools like NGen are becoming the standard for delivering complex projects efficiently.
It simplifies the transition from a geometric model to an analytical one, handling complex connectivity issues that often plague finite element modeling. midas-ngen
Introduction Midas-NGen (Next Generation) represents a significant leap in structural engineering software, moving away from the traditional, fragmented approach of using multiple programs for different stages of a project. Developed by MIDAS IT, it is an integrated BIM-based (Building Information Modeling) system designed to handle the entire lifecycle of a structural project—from 3D modeling and analysis to design and the generation of 2D drawings. Core Philosophy: Total Integration Midas-NGen is more than just an analysis tool;
Midas-NGen leverages automation to tackle repetitive tasks that typically consume an engineer's time. Key features include: It simplifies the transition from a geometric model
The software can automatically suggest member sizes based on international codes (such as ACI, Eurocodes, or AISC), balancing structural safety with material economy.
Perhaps its most powerful tool is the ability to generate high-quality CAD drawings and Bill of Materials (BOM) directly from the design data, significantly reducing the "drawing-room" bottleneck. Impact on the Industry
