Add additional country settings

Hi. I just wonder if it is possible to add additional profile sections to Advance Steel 2015. Particularly I need russian profiles. Thanks in advance.

Hello Levgen,

 

GOST beams are available out of the Box with Advance Steel, Depedning on installation they are sometimes referred to as GUS. The reason for this I am unsure.

 

There are two methods to add sections to Advance Steel. One method is to edit AstorOProfiles.mdb file located in  C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Advance\Data.

 

You will be able to copy an existing I Section, channel, hollow profile or angle table, then rename and edit according to the dimensions and properties you require. I do recommend making a backup of the default AstorProfiles.mdb

 

The other method for non standatd type sections such as extruded aluminium is to create a user profile. The link below goes through this process in great detail.
