Each of the software applications includes new features in response to specific client feedback, an important aspect of continued software development. The Framing software itself has delivered 32 new features to help users make the most of the package, whilst meeting market requirements.
Amongst such new functions is the ability to calculate the thermal bridging properties of each frame within any given design, a point of particular importance given the need to ascertain the thermal efficiency of all buildings, particularly residential properties.

Gang-Nail's Framing software is specifically developed for designing timber frame buildings as part of the offsite manufacturing process.
Structures can be detailed in 3D format, using AutoCAD or Architecture , producing comprehensive cutting lists and manufacturing drawings, which can be supplied directly to automated cutting machinery.
The latest version of the software also incorporates enhanced variable solutions for both open and closed panels and I beam walls. Whilst these options were previously included, Gang-Nail sees the importance in continued software development to evolve, reflecting such design requirements.
Timber engineers, Rennie & Kirkwood, are using the latest version of the Framing software. Vince Stuart commented: "The recently updated Framing package makes it even easier for us to design and manufacture timber frames, according to the specific needs of the project in question. The integration of the software has enabled us to expand our growing client base as a result."
He continued: "Compared to alternative systems of this nature, we believe that Gang-Nail's Framing package offers everything required to undertake timber framing jobs, a point which is owed largely to the regular software updates from Gang-Nail."
Updated every three months, Framing offers the user the most up to date software package of its kind and is altered and updated according to customer feedback, helping to drive the product forward in turn.
