Every element on the right rack, in the right truck

Set up your transport racks and trucks once. A truck gets a load floor, height, payload and two support points for the axle load; a rack its sizes, own weight and the overhang allowed at the front and back. You can load on racks, flat on the load floor, or both.

• A warning when the load sticks out, or is too wide, too high, too heavy or over the axle load
• Racks of 1200 mm side by side when they fit on the load floor together
• Stack elements flat on the load floor, turned a quarter when that fits better
• A maximum transport width up to 3500 mm, with a note that an RDW exemption is needed
• Costs per trip, per rack and per hour for a fair comparison

With one button Beamcore spreads all open elements over racks and trucks. You always get three variants side by side: Cheapest, Fewest trips and Easiest unloading, with the costs, the number of trips and the unloading handlings. Every variant is checked with the same rules as the planner, and the recommendation never names a variant that cannot be carried out.

• Walls upright, floors and roofs flat, never larger on smaller
• First divide over trucks, then give the transports a date
• Manual changes are kept per variant
• A PDF per variant and a comparison PDF of all three
• A note when an element arrives later than the assembly order because of the layout

Every element on a transport has an assembly order, set by hand or suggested from the build order in Montage (Assembly). Beamcore puts the element to be assembled first on each rack last, and shows per element when it goes on and comes off. With Simulate unloading you walk through the unloading step by step, in 2D and 3D.

• A warning when an element to be assembled earlier sits behind a later one
• The number of elements that have to be moved aside temporarily
• Production planning follows the loading order: what goes at the bottom is made first
• Latest finished and latest loading calculated back from the delivery date

When you join several elements together in the factory, that assembly shows in the load planner as one unit, with the combined sizes, the weight and the real 3D shape of all elements. The separate elements can then no longer go on a rack on their own, and loading is only possible once the assembly is ready for transport.

• An assembly has its own number, such as SE-001
• The elements get the transport of their assembly in production planning
• An assembly on a transport can no longer change unnoticed

In the factory view the loading crew works through the transport step by step. Per element you tick off that it is loaded and that it is checked, and Beamcore records who did it and when. A step with a critical block cannot be ticked off here.

• The actual status per element: planned, ready for loading, loaded, checked and delivered
• An element that is still in production or has a problem cannot be loaded
• Loading report as a PDF with a 3D overview of the load, the loading steps and a check overview
• Browsing and the 3D change nothing; only ticking off records something

Protective material and spacers are listed as material with the transport. The number of spacers follows from the spacers in the load; protective material you enter yourself or take from your approved loading rules with Quantities from rules, per element, per rack or per transport. With the Timber stock add-on you reserve the material on a final transport.

• Reserved material runs along in the order list and the stock issue
• Only the stock issue books material out; loading or ticking off never touches stock
• Your own entries stay and take priority over the rule
• If the transport changes, the reservation is updated

Beamcore calculates with the real parts of an element. A flat element settles until it really rests on a part below, so elements can also nest in each other, battens between battens. With Check support the 3D colours each element by what it rests on and how much contact there is.

• Lying flat, the largest element goes at the bottom, never large on small; staggering up to 100 mm is allowed
• Red with no contact or only a protruding part, orange when it still needs to be checked
• Move a rack with its load in the 3D as one unit, with sizes, total weight and centre of gravity
• Assemblies stand upright, as they were built
• Wider than the load floor goes flat, with a wide transport notice

Without a chosen project the load planner shows your projects as cards with the project photo, the percentage of elements that are ready, the transports and the next transport. By default the screens show only what you need; the rest is behind More sections. Live track and trace and the crane and unloading window are on the building site page.

• Per project planned, loaded and delivered
• One status line, with blocked first
• Control status and checks can always be expanded
• In the simulation only step, element, status, action and points of attention in view
