We’re not slowing down – BIM Rawlplug integration with Cype Connect
This is yet another important integration of the Rawlplug BIM technical library, following Athena CAD-PLAN and bocad SCHULLER&Company. From now on, our products are available to users of Cype Connect.
What benefits will this collaboration bring, and how will it impact the development of the solutions we offer to designers?
Cype Connect – software for professionals
Designers are one of the most important user groups we target with our offering. The implementation of Rawlplug products into software used daily by engineers and structural designers is not only a response to our clients’ expectations, but above all a more convenient and faster way to access the Rawlplug product range.
You can find a presentation of the Cype Connect directly on the BIM Rawlplug website. The Software section allows you to conveniently browse all the tools integrated with our technical library.
Cype Connect is professional software designed for modelling and analyzing structural connections – primarily steel, timber, and concrete base connections. Thanks to the use of the advanced Finite Element Method (FEM), the programme enables calculations and optimization of connections, providing engineers with a precise tool during the design process.
Did you know...?
FEM, or the Finite Element Method, is an advanced numerical technique used, among other things, to solve engineering problems. It involves dividing a complex object (e.g. a structure) into smaller, simpler parts called finite elements.
The developer of Cype Connect is the Spanish company CYPE Ingenieros, which is why the software enjoys the greatest popularity on the Iberian market. The application provides access to a comprehensive library of mechanical and chemical anchor models. Additionally, it enables a full structural strength analysis of the connection in accordance with selected guidelines (e.g. EN 1992-4:2018). Calculations are based on the actual parameters of Rawlplug products, using up-to-date ETA documentation.
BIM Rawlplug is more than just a library of technical drawings
The integration of BIM Rawlplug with the Cype Connect programme is a step forward in simplifying the work of designers and engineers. 3D models of all chemical and mechanical anchors have been implemented, allowing automatic generation of 2D documentation as well. Users can access the library’s resources directly within the software, without needing to switch between tools. This helps reduce working time and speeds up the design process.

The collaboration with Cype Connect – following earlier partnerships with the developers of software such as Athena CAD-PLAN and bocad SCHULLER&Company – means that BIM Rawlplug is no longer just a library of technical drawings and models. Our products are becoming an integral part of key design tools, and access to them is now significantly more convenient.
