Deck Design

The deck feature of SoftPlan allows you to add custom designed decks to a building. The decks you create will appear in 3D presentation views and in the material list calculations.

When drawing decks, you may choose to draw a deck complete with beams, posts, railing, ring joists, joists, and decking or you can select items that you want to draw either in combination or individually.

Design a  Deck

Custom Deck Rail

Railing can be added automatically, and then edited for positioning to align to center of ring joist or to move it inside or outside. Different styles of posts, spivals, hand and toe rails can also be added.

Complex deck designs can be created using SoftPlan’s tools including decks with different levels. Decks can be angled or curved and decking and deck joists can be angled.
