What the video shows
The hall is a 3D steel frame in XFEM4U 2023.2: columns on a grid, roof beams and purlins, and bracing in the roof and the walls. The cover of the video shows the geometry, with each profile in its own colour.

Colouring the members by profile is a quick check before you calculate: a heavy section in the wrong place stands out at once. For a hall like this, the load generator in XFEM4U adds wind and snow to the Eurocode, and the steel checks to EN 1993-1-1 show every clause in the report.
