On the left, the IFC from the native Advance Steel exporter. On the right, the SteelX IFC. Rotate both and compare.
Three fronts that solve the daily work of BIM deliverables.
Real 3D geometry, colours by layer, BIM properties per element. Not a generic IFC: it is the AS model exported the way the industry demands.
Exports elements grouped by assembly — beams, plates and fasteners properly linked, ready for Revit, Navisworks or BIM 360.
Assign CWA, CWP and IWP directly to model elements. Carry work packaging data all the way to IFC — no spreadsheets, no manual copying.

In March 2023, Autodesk announced that Advance Steel would enter maintenance mode. No more new features.
SteelX was born to fill that gap. Developed by someone who uses AS in real projects, who knows what is missing and wants to keep using the tool they know without giving up the BIM and AWP requirements that modern projects demand.
