Output lists
Material list and unit overview:
Size of the profile sections (section generation)
Section lines through the profiles can be defined in the unit view using the Create profile section detail function. These profile section details can be output underneath the item drawing. In the settings for the material list and unit overview lists, you can choose between the settings Large and Small. As of this version, you can also select the option Extra large. In this case, the entire table width is used as the column width for vertical section details.
Glass with foil – laminated glass type (complex)
As of this version, you can enter complex laminated glass with internal foil as a user-defined glass type.
The steps are required to create laminated glass type:
Go to General > Master Data > Glass and panel data and click Glass types at the top menu bar.
– Click Foil Types and then New foil type. Define the name of the laminate foil and two parameters: thickness and weight:
– Click New laminated glass (complex) button to create laminated glass pane composition that consists of standard glass panes and newly created laminated foil. Use green + button to add layers, sorted from outside to inside:
– You can also create new glass type with New glass sort button. You can define here supplier nomenclature name for monolithic glass pane:
This type can be used later as single glass pane, component of insulated or laminated glass pocket:
– In the Glass and panel dialog box, you can then select the created Laminated glass (complex) as the glass type for your glass.
– Expand the triangle next to Thickness Inside (or Outside, if laminated glass was added at external side) and define thicknesses of the glass panes. Foil thickness is grayed out, it was defined in Foil Type before.
Despite of the fact that lamination foil thickness can be defined as decimal fraction of millimeter, the overall total thickness of glass pocket can only be defined in absolute millimeter value. Therefore, you need to define Round up total thickness parameter as Rounded down to nearest mm or Rounded up to nearest mm:
Please note: Laminated glass (complex) glass type is not static calculation is still not calculated for units with the
Glass and panel:
New heat-soaked, toughened safety glass (TSG) glass types
Six new glass types have been added to the program (heat-soak test with third-party monitoring,).
Single glazing:
– Heat-soaked TSG made from float glass
– Heat-soaked TSG made from float glass (enamelled)
Laminated glass:
– Composite glass made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass
– Composite glass made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass (enamelled)
– LSG made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass
– LSG made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass (enamelled)
For the preliminary structural calculation, these glass types are evaluated in a similar way to glass types made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass, laminated glass made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass, and LSG made from heat-soaked TSG made from float glass.
Import additional material (XML import)
As of this version, length-related and individual articles which are entered in an XML file can be added to an item as additional material.
To do this, you will find the new context menu entry Additional material > import when you select an item in the Project list of contents in Project explorer or in the Project window.
You can also import it in the item context on Item data tab:
New triggers have been included for the fabrication time calculation. Use the filter function for the Included since column in the Trigger for fabrication time calculation dialog box in order to obtain an overview of the triggers included with the version.
If you want to use the new triggers in your production lines, you must re-assign them to the appropriate operations and enter times.
Old fabrication time calculation no longer available
It has been possible to calculate times with the new fabrication time calculation since the 2018 program version. The old fabrication time calculation is no longer available as of this version. For existing items, the times from the old production lines are no longer calculated and an entry is added to the message list.
If you have not yet made the changeover to the new fabrication time calculation, please contact our Service Desk directly. They will support you in performing the steps required for a smooth transition.
Preliminary structural calculation
Glass statics:
Amended partial safety factors for pane thicknesses of 2 mm
The following has been amended for the calculation of the Max. load combination – load-bearing capacity for glass with pane thicknesses of 2 mm:
– The partial safety factor for 2 mm panes made from thermally toughened glass types has been changed from γM = 1.5 to γM = 1.6.
– The partial safety factor for 2 mm panes made from glass types that have not been thermally toughened has been changed from γM = 1.8 to γM = 1.9.
This change applies to all countries except Belgium. For Germany, this only applies if the entry DIN 18008 is selected as the Calculation rules for glass.
Glass statics:
Alternative test for glazing with limited consequential damage
As of this version, in the Preliminary structural calculation dialog box, you will find a new check box Alternative test for glazing with limited consequential damage in the settings for the Insulating glass values under the group Calculation rules for glass. If you check this check box, the calculation for multiple-pane insulating glass, which corresponds to the definition in DIN 18008-2 Section 6.1.4, is performed with amended parameters:
– Proof of structural safety: For the calculation of combined loads for stresses, γQ = 1.0 is taken as the basis for all climate loads.
– Proof of deflection: A permissible deflection of 1/65 of the span is accepted.
This option can be selected for all countries except Belgium. For Germany, this only applies if the entry DIN 18008 is selected as the Calculation rules for glass.
Processing mode:
Working with serial processes
The following changes and additions have been made in this version for generating serial processes:
– The dialog box for creating a new serial process has been redesigned.
– When defining the properties for a serial process, two new types can now be selected in addition to the usual types 1 (first/last) and 2 (first/quantity):
Type 3 (start/end)
Type 4 (field-by-field)
– In the tree view of the Processes tab, newly created serial processes are now preset with the description Serial process instead of Processing group.
– Processing groups can be added as a serial process:
To do this, you can select an existing processing group in the tree view and change it to a serial process by means of the context menu entry Generate serial process
Alternatively, you can also create a serial process based on a group saved in the Processing groups dialog box.

II.3 Changes to aluminium systems
Schüco AvanTec SimplySmart and Schüco surface-mounted SimplySmart window fitting:
Schüco DriveTec
As of this version, the fittings system for window ventilation can be entered for the side-hung, bottom-hung and roof window opening types.
For these opening types, you can select the new DriveTec (ventilation) operating type. The further selections in the Field properties dialog box are matched to the fittings system. You can determine the individual fittings components under the Fittings group.
Schüco AvanTec SimplySmart and Schüco surface-mounted SimplySmart window fitting:
Plastic locking bar in VE 2 x 60 m
The new packing unit for the locking bar (Art. No. 277872) can be calculated.
To this end, you can select the new entry Plastic (PU = 2 x 60 m) in the technical settings (Fittings group > Locking bar) for the corresponding window systems.
Schüco AvanTec SimplySmart and Schüco surface-mounted SimplySmart window fitting:
Double-vent openings – calculating keeps in the access vent
In the access vent at the top, a Comfort keep can now be inserted on the corner drive with stop. The way keeps are generated has been changed accordingly.
Please note:
This change affects existing items.
SimplySmart outward-opening window fittings:
Side-hung openings – reverse rebate profiles with and without hinge groove
(Schüco AWS 50 to Schüco AWS 75.SI+ systems)
Under certain conditions, a cable fitting must be used for openings with side-hung stays. For this cable fitting, there must be a hinge groove in the outer frame or reverse rebate profile. To ensure that the cable fitting can be inserted if it is required, the calculation logic has been changed.
In previous versions, the reverse rebate profile was always calculated automatically without hinge groove when a vent profile was selected. As of this version, reverse rebate profiles are always calculated with hinge groove for vent profiles with hinge groove. You can then select the required version via the Modify section context menu entry if necessary.
Please note:
This change affects existing items.
If a vent profile with hinge groove is used for a side-hung opening with stays, and a reverse rebate profile without hinge groove has been calculated, the reverse rebate profile with hinge groove is now calculated. The vent dimensions and glass dimensions thereby change.
If a vent profile without hinge groove is used for a side-hung opening with stays, for which a reverse rebate profile with hinge groove cannot be automatically calculated, no additional cable fittings are calculated if they have been calculated beforehand. In this case, you will receive a notification that the cable fitting cannot be calculated. In order to calculate the cable fitting, you need to select a vent profile with hinge groove, so that a reverse rebate profile is then automatically calculated with hinge groove.
Please note as an exception:
In the previous version, side-hung window doors with stay DIN left and DIN right (opening types 160/161) with one vent without hinge groove were calculated with a reverse rebate profile with hinge groove. As of this version, a reverse rebate profile without hinge groove is calculated for these.

Details about the fabric – changes
(ZDS in front of Schüco AF UDC 80)
The following properties in the Fabric properties group in the Schüco AB ZDS sun shading dialog box have been changed:
– Instead of having to select the colour in advance for the sides 1, as of this version you specify which colour is to apply as the Outer side of the fabric: Side 1 (top side) or Side 2 (underside). The first named colour of the fabric in each case is the top side (example of colour fabric: Pearl grey/white).
The assignment is automatically adjusted for sun shading entered in the previous version.
– The checkbox for the transverse processing is no longer required.
