Web Stiffener is a powerful tool tailored for structural professionals to effortlessly incorporate web stiffeners onto W-beams, enhancing structural integrity and performance. Whether you’re working on bridges, buildings, or other steel structures, this app simplifies the task of reinforcing W-beams with customizable stiffeners.
Key Features:
- Flexible Selection Options:Select individual points on the W-beam where stiffeners should be added. Define a distance between two points, and the app automatically calculates and positions stiffeners at specified intervals.
- Customization Control: Adjust spacing between stiffeners to meet structural requirements. Specify offsets to fine-tune stiffener placement relative to the beam's web.
- Insertion Parameters:Choose the exact insertion location along the beam. Define which side of the beam (left or right) stiffeners should be placed.
- Stiffener Size Options: Select from predefined stiffener sizes or input custom dimensions as needed. Ensure compatibility with various beam sizes and design specifications.
- Visual Feedback and Verification: Visualize proposed stiffener placements in real-time. Verify and adjust configurations before finalizing to ensure accuracy.
- User-Friendly Interface: Intuitive controls and a clear interface make it easy to navigate and use effectively. Streamline workflow and reduce design time with efficient tools and functionalities.
Benefits:
- Enhanced Structural Integrity: Strengthen W-beams effectively with strategically placed stiffeners.
- Time Efficiency: Automate stiffener placement calculations and adjustments, saving valuable design and engineering time.
- Customization: Tailor stiffener parameters to meet specific project requirements and design standards.
- Precision and Accuracy: Ensure precise placement and sizing of stiffeners for optimal structural performance.
- Ideal Users: Structural engineers, designers, and architects involved in the design and analysis of steel structures where W-beams require reinforcement through web stiffeners.
- Conclusion: Web Stiffener empowers professionals to enhance the reliability and durability of steel structures by simplifying the process of adding web stiffeners to W-beams. By combining advanced functionalities with user-friendly design, this app supports efficient and precise structural reinforcement, contributing to safer and more resilient construction projects.
Note: Web Stiffener is designed to complement existing structural design software, providing specialized capabilities focused on web stiffener implementation for W-beams.

Thanks for this plugin, It really saves our time. When is 2024 version going to be released?
I use this on every project. Very handy tool. Now looking forward to the 2025 version.
I was having some trouble using this add in, emailed support. Within 30 minutes I received a phone call from Jamie at StructSoft. He set up a GoToMeeting, and I showed him my issue. We ended the meeting with no solution yet so that Jamie could try some things on his own while I went back to work. 10 minutes later he called me back with the solution.(Hint: Make sure that Generic Models are turned on)
This is easy to use, flexible, and a real time saver.
Expect 2020 support soon.
very fast and easy to manipulated, nice job
Hi, i use German-Library to build my Stuff. But when i try to use your Plugin i see an error: k2 and Web Fillet value missing. This is Possibly not an I-Beam.Only I-Beams are currently supported. :( Revit 2015
same for uk sections. pressumable this is a usa only app
Didn't recognised any Australian steel size, K2 value missing error and another. Developer.. keep in mind world wide users frequent these pages.
I run the install but it does not install on Revit 2015. Please make this possible.
I would like to try it out, but I don't see the icon/command to start the tool. Revit 2015 UR6. It isn't in 'StrucSoft Apps' where column splitter is, not in the 'add-ins' and doesn't seem to appear in any of the regular tabs.
Could be great tool... but didn't work for me. Tried to use it on IPE, HEA, HEB beams but without success - application just says that can't find k2 parameter!
Right now this tool only works with W Shapes, as it says in the description. Please insert family W-Wide Flange.rfa from Autodesk store and try the tool. This family has a variable k2 which is a curve radius. In other families it may have a different name. If k2 is defined or renamed to in other families then this tool will work.
Thanks for reply... It's a pity that application is restricted only to Imperial W-Wide Flange.rfa family. In metric Wide Flange family there is <> parameter in-place of <>, so metric library of W-Wide Flange Shapes is also not supported by this application.
Very nice looking application but very limited use (only one shape and only from Imperial family)...
Excellent new tool from StructSoft Solutions. Very easy to add web stiffeners wherever you need. Recognizes beam sizes and adjusts accordingly. Look for more innovative products from StructSoft Solutions, a leader in Revit plug ins.
