ALTRAD-Mostostal systems compared head to head

Every pair of ALTRAD-Mostostal systems in the ScaFix catalogue: which bay lengths and depths they share, which only one of them has, and what the planning engine counts for each on the same example house, parts group by parts group.

How do the ALTRAD-Mostostal systems differ?

ScaFix has 2 ALTRAD-Mostostal systems: ROTAX Plus and MOSTOSTAL Plus. On the same example house (11.4 m × 5.3 m), MOSTOSTAL Plus needs 324 parts and ROTAX Plus 569. Both offer the 3.07 m, 2.57 m, 2.07 m, 1.57 m, 1.09 m, 0.73 m bay lengths.

Questions and answers

Can I mix parts from two ALTRAD-Mostostal systems in ScaFix?

No. ScaFix plans each wall with one system’s own parts and never mixes systems in a parts list. Whether two systems of one maker may be combined on site is for ALTRAD-Mostostal’s instructions to say. ScaFix is a planning aid, not a structural approval.

Why do the parts totals of the ALTRAD-Mostostal systems differ?

A wall is filled with each system’s own bay lengths, so a shorter bay means more bays, standards and ledgers; the depth changes the transoms and decks, and frame systems count frames where modular systems count standards and ledgers. The totals say nothing about price or load class.
