METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZING SHIPPING METHODOLOGY FOR 2-DIRECTIONAL FLOOR JOISTS

摘要

The present invention is a system for optimizing the shipping of floor joists, comprising: analyzing a building model, wherein a set of floor joists are isolated; processing a first set of data associated each of the set of floor joists, wherein the first set of data is related to members of the floor joist and the interface between these members; grouping a first group of the set of floor joists into a bundle, wherein the first group of floor joists is based on the processed first set of data; analyzing the bundle relative to the volume of a shipping vessel, wherein it is determined if the shipping vessel can container the vessel; manipulating, by at least one processor the bundle of floor joists based on limitations of the shipping vessel; and generating a graphical representation of the bundle and the position of the bundle within the shipping vessel.
