The MAP cost calculation software that we use can be purchased from the Map Datenverabeitung company, is supported around the clock by our technicians and keeps master data continuously up-to-date. This is a free service provided by Sapa Building System to our customers. The features offered by MAP offers include:
- Compatibility with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, Windows 7
- Easy to use with integrated, context-sensitive help system
- Output of all the necessary lists; calculation, components lists, bar optimisation and type sheets, etc.
- Open to other profile systems
- Connection to cutting / processing centres
- Interface to Materials Management
|
The simple operation, which is further supported by its Help system, enables rapid item detection, and thereby the rapid calculation of complex buildings. Thanks to the graphically oriented selection of profiles and usage elements, no additional documentation, such as system folders or processing brochures, is required.
|
The following lists can be output:
- Cost calculations * (with or without wastage)
- Data sheets (with detailed graphics) *
- Material requirements lists
- Individually designed task lists
|
* Each of these lists contains a graphical view of the element with main dimensions.
The optional AutoCAD or AutoCAD LT interface permits the transfer of the detected elements. Cut generation is then performed automatically in CAD. Both the cuts and the display are automatically measured and fully labelled.
