Dowco to integrate Qnect's software into Dowco's world class detailing offerings.

As North America’s first Tekla Structures user we had developed a myriad of tools, technologies and best practices around Tekla/Trimble software, but none offering the advantages that Qnect can,” says Ewen Dobbie, Dowco Consultants CEO. "Compressed construction schedules, iterative design and early connected fabrication ready models will become the norm and we see Qnect enabling us the ability to apply AISC and CISC connections rapidly and accurately with increased productivity, improved quality and lower cost for all project stakeholders.
