Unlike some "all-in-one" packages that are cumbersome for small tasks, Prokon allows engineers to open a specific module—like "Square Footing Design"—and finish a calculation in minutes. However, it still maintains the "Sumo" module for those who need to perform full-scale structural modeling. Security Warning
| Feature | Benefit | |---------|----------| | (Earthwork, Pavement, Retaining Walls, Foundations, etc.) | One‑stop solution for many design tasks. | | Spreadsheet‑style UI | Easy to learn for users familiar with Excel. | | Extensive local code libraries (e.g., South African, Australian, US standards) | Reduces the need for manual code look‑ups. | | Robust reporting (PDF, Word, Excel) | Ready‑to‑submit design packages. | | Legacy support | Many engineering firms still maintain projects built in 5.x, so the ability to open and edit older files is valuable. |
Prokon 5.3 is an integrated suite of tools designed to handle structural analysis and design for timber, steel, and concrete. It is known for its user-friendly interface and the ability to handle both simple component designs and complex multi-story building frames. Key Features and Capabilities
Engineers can now export calculation sheets directly to Microsoft Word or as Rich Text Format (RTF) files, making project documentation more flexible.
