    Smile DSTV file format?

    Does anyone know what the DSTV file format is? I know that it is a standard format used by some commercial steel detailing software to go from a CAD drawing to your CNC machine. I am unclear as to whether it is the format approved by the German Steel Association & how widely it is used.

    I would really like to get hold of a copy of the format for this file type. Does anyone have one? (or a standard documentation for it; or the description of the fields?). Any help appreciated.

    Many thanks

    DSTV file format

    I have a copy I got from a Google search on DSTV file format. It is about 15 pages and gives you all of the info you need if you can progam. It is getting to be the standard file that most machines can read. One file can go to multiple machines...

    DSTV format is an industrial standard defined by the German Steel Construction Association (Deutsche Stahlbau-Verband).

    A DSTV file is a text file in ASCII format.

    The DSTV standard does not support curved beams, and therefore Tekla Structures does not create NC files for curved beams. Use polybeams instead of curved beams.
