Description
CalcSteel is an online structural engineering solution that delivers professional steel design and finite element analysis directly in the browser. Instead of requiring expensive desktop licenses, it offers a modern, cloud-based platform accessible from any device. Engineers can create 3D models using an intuitive editor with smart snapping, precise dimension controls, and full undo/redo functionality. The built-in 6 degree-of-freedom FEM solver allows users to analyze structural behavior efficiently. Members can be verified against widely recognized international design codes, including AISC 360, Eurocode 3, NBR 8800, AS 4100, and IS 800. The system includes a comprehensive library of more than 640 steel profiles covering global standards. From concept modeling to load assignment and structural verification, the workflow is streamlined into four clear steps. Users can generate detailed engineering sheets and export branded PDF documentation for clients or internal review. Pricing is structured to be dramatically lower than traditional tools like SAP2000 or STAAD.Pro, with free access and affordable subscription tiers. CalcSteel empowers professionals to design, analyze, and document steel structures without being restricted by costly software barriers.
Description
The development of formwork, positioning, and shop drawings encompasses all essential features necessary for structural design, including associative dimensioning, level indicators, hatching, and various symbols. It includes layouts for steel bars and mesh suitable for any reinforcement scenario, ensuring seamless integration with AutoCAD, along with customizable settings to meet office standards through styles. It allows for the direct generation of schedules, supports user-defined shapes, and facilitates the export of existing reinforcements for calculations based on the second-order theory. The system also offers a polygonal mesh layout and macros designed for creating parametric members, with the Macros Module requiring detailing capabilities. Additionally, it provides comprehensive check, production, and layout plans specifically for BAMTEC customized reinforcement carpets. This functionality enables the fully automated generation of reinforcement carpets, includes all necessary drawings consolidated into a single file, allows for the subsequent arrangement of areas, and features extensive editing options for various area specifications, whether by value or by the diameter and number of bars. Moreover, users can easily modify the designs to accommodate specific project needs, ensuring maximum flexibility in their structural planning.
