Custom web apps for roofers

OUR WEB-BASED TOOL CALCULATES SNOW AND WIND LOADS, PANTILE COVERING DISTANCES AND MORE

Online snow guard calculation for Braas GmbH - portrino GmbH

When planning and constructing a roof, many technical specifications and location factors must be taken into account. Our specially designed series of web applications for Braas GmbH supports these processes with reliable data. The Braas snow guard calculator predicts expected snow loads, the Braas wind suction calculator predicts expected wind loads and the Braas roof division calculates the roof batten and cord distances for pantile coverings.

Challenge

Our goal was to develop reliable software for use by architects and roofers involved in construction projects. In close cooperation with the engineers at Braas GmbH, we were able to design a series of web apps to meet this challenge.
We utilized PHP and JavaScript to establish the complex underlying logical calculations for the later web applications. We also developed an import function in order to import technical product data from Excel.

Essential development details:

Implementation of web applications in PHP, JavaScript and HTML
Use of geodata for the automatic assignment of the postal code to calculate snow and wind load
Continuous development to adapt applications to new standards

Continuous import of new technical product data
Provision of functions within the mobile Braas App (no longer available)
Test & Quality Assurance

Good to know

Few companies are able to plan for and estimate loads in such detail. Our Braas snow guard calculation tool takes factors such as terrain height, snow load zone and roof pitch into account when calculating the expected snow load. This makes the selecting a suitable snow guard roof system easier and more transparent.
