Used throughout the UK and Ireland, ASD Westok has released an update to its popular Cellbeam software package.

Cellbeam 10.4 has been developed by the Steel Construction Institute (SCI) and is available as a free download at: https://asd.ltd/westok-software.

This latest upgrade is said to include a host of new features that will assist users in developing more carbon-friendly design solutions.

The updated software now includes a carbon calculator that allows the user to easily work-out and report the Modules A1-A5 and Module D embodied carbon values.

The company said, the feature is packaged in an easy-to-use format and can help engineers better understand and report the carbon savings associated with their Westok cellular beam designs.

Responding to the growing demand for sustainable and hybrid construction solutions, Cellbeam 10.4 also includes enhanced slab input options, facilitating Westok cellular beams with CLT (Cross-Laminated Timber) slabs.

The updated software has streamlined its reporting on fire performance, focusing on the critical failure temperatures of the web or flange, rather than the previous dual reporting format. This update is said to more accurately reflect the performance of the cellular beam in fire.
