SkyCiv Structural Analysis Software analysis
Capabilities for modelling and analysing simple to complex structures.
Cloud-based Structural Analysis and Design Software
SkyCiv Structural 3D is our most powerful online structural analysis software, offering a full suite of modelling, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and design capabilities.
This 3D frame analysis software allows you to model, analyze, and design steel, timber, concrete and general structures. The 100% cloud-based engineering software allows users to access their programs and files from a web browser, anywhere, anytime!
No installation is required and updates are automatic so everyone is working on the latest version of the software. Structural 3D has an intuitive user interface which allows for rapid creation of complex structural models.
WHY ENGINEERs SWITCH
Structural analysis software that runs the full workflow
Easy and powerful FEA analysis
Run linear, non-linear, buckling and dynamic analysis within a single solver. No separate modules for complex analysis types.
Integrated design checks
Steel, concrete, timber and cold-formed design modules run directly on your analysis results. No exporting, re-entry or version mismatches.
Detailed calculation reports
Every formula, design check and
reference is shown in full, so you can defend every number, not just the result.

Perform analysis on your sections to calculate stress values.
An Effortless User Interface
SkyCiv’s mission is to make complex engineering tasks simple and intuitive. This starts with a user-centric interface. We have a range of features designed to make using Structural 3D a breeze:
Create models using our intuitive pen tool or Excel-like datasheet entry.
Import models from Revit, Grasshopper, DXF, IFC and other structural modeling software.
Access range of right-click and operation functions, such as splitting members, copy-paste, multi-edit, intersecting members, area load functionality, and more.
Simple input fields with detailed info tips and links to video tutorials.
Create vertical and horizontal gridlines to accelerate modeling.

The ease of use and the presentation of the results are both awesome. I have had ongoing interaction with the support team and everyone is excellent.
Mitch Frumkin
CEO OF KIPCON
It was easily the most intuitive package available to learn; it is particularly easy to build the 3D model and define nodes, members, supports, materials, sections, then apply loads & combinations.
Stuart Agars
Managing Director of Struct-Sure Limited
It is used for various civil and mechanical engineering courses and the students love it. We are happy with the continuous updates to SkyCiv as well, highly recommended.
Dr Kenneth R. Leitch
Assoc. Prof. at Texas A&M
SkyCiv has been a great tool to help efficiently and clearly document and update design results for a member of a small company with multiple responsibilities.
