I've been looking for a steel truss design software that also does fabrication drawings.
From what I've found so far there are a lot of options that can do truss designs but not many that also produce fabrication drawings.

This is one that I found but I was wondering if anyone has used it and has opinions on the pros and cons of the software?

JFBA Truss Design and Estimating

FrameCAD can do this as well but you need to have one of their machines to get the software

Thanks!

I used to use my 2D frame software and post processed it in an Excel spreadsheet I created. Then my customer switched to Alpine trusses which comes with its own software. Made my life a lot easier.
