Steel Material Overall Summary

Hi, we are using Prosteel Prostructures V8i Selectseries 8 and would appreciate being able to produce an overall summary of material for ordering purposes.

A typical example would be:

PL.10 = 50m2

Pl.15 = 75m2

HEB300 = 240m

L.100x100x10 = 75m

Is it possible to extract this information directly from the 3d model into another format?

I look forward to your response.

  • Hi Johannes,

    Many thanks for your response, however please note the following additional queries:

    1. Your screen shots are too blurred and cannot be read, please also expand on your instructions as your posted ones are a little vague.

    2. Where is the BEN_ET_ordered_List_H.lst located  i.e. which folder?

    3. We are looking for an overall summary of material for ordering purposes, not an overall paint area.

    4. An example of a typical format that we require is as my original question and preferably in .xlsx format i.e.

    PL.10 = 50m2

    Pl.15 = 75m2

    HEB300 = 240m

    L.100x100x10 = 75m

    Please could you re-address this query and respond accordingly.

    I look forward to your response.

    Kind regards,
