Civil Structures
A few enhancements were implemented in the following areas: Integration with AutoCAD Civil 3D 2013 application Integration mechanism was changed to be more stable and independent of user way of work. Problems related to loading *.xml files were fixed. Data transfer was improved to avoid data inconsistency which occurred in specific situations after transferring model from Autodesk Revit to AutoCAD Civil 3D.

Modeling in Autodesk Revit Additional verification for parameters used to create bridge in Autodesk Revit was added to ensure that data entered by user is coherent and allows for valid bridge construction. The algorithm responsible for bridge generation was improved to remove inaccuracy in the created geometry. Problem with work with two bridge objects inside one Autodesk Revit file was solved. Improved work with configurations files (*.rdx) and increased stability of application.

Integration with Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis 2013

Improvements were introduced to increase the stability of integration between Revit and Robot applications.

Reinforcement Modules
Enhancements were implemented to perform more advanced analyze for complex structures. Reinforcement modules can now recognize more cases where automatic reinforcement shouldnt be applied. Moreover some improvements were implemented to increase the stability, reliability and performance of reinforcement modules.

Revit Extensions for Spanish localized version of Autodesk Revit

Improvements were done to get all extensions available for the user.
