SOFiPLUS is SOFiSTiK&qout;s standard pre-processor. Based on AutoCAD 2010 the program takes full advantage of the enhanced AutoCAD modelling-technology enabling the engineer to generate almost any FE-structure – from simple slabs to complicated freeform-surfaces. SOFiPLUS can be purchased as a pure add-on to AutoCAD or included with an integrated AutoCAD 2009-OEM engine.
