TWH, a Chilean leader in modular construction, integrated Altair SimSolid to rapidly validate the structural performance of prefabricated bathroom pods. Traditional finite element workflows were too slow to support projects requiring multiple pod variants under tight schedules. SimSolid enabled engineers to analyze fully detailed CAD assemblies without geometry simplification or meshing, automatically recognizing parts, fasteners, and connections. TWH simulated roof loads, crane lifting stresses, and buckling scenarios in minutes instead of weeks. The approach confirmed load capacities, defined safe lifting guidelines, and reduced development cycles, giving TWH the speed, confidence, and agility needed to innovate modular building systems while maintaining safety and quality standards.
