SkyCiv Beam Analysis Software
Reliable, Easy to Use Beam Analysis Software
SkyCiv Beam
SkyCiv Beam Analysis Software provides users with fast and accurate analysis of beam structures. You get a detailed analysis of your beam member, including reactions, shear forces, bending moments, deflection, and stresses in seconds. SkyCiv Beam is fully integrated with our structural steel, timber, and cold-formed steel design modules, allowing for quick design checks with full reporting.
Experience it by trying our free Beam Calculator!
Our cloud-based software is accessible through any browser, allowing users to work on their projects from anywhere without the need for installation or manual updates.

What SkyCiv Beam offers
Detailed Beam Analysis
SkyCiv Beam lets you model beams of any complexity and calculate reactions, shear forces, and bending moment results.
You can define supports, loading layouts and generate load combinations based on the relevant design standard.
The software reports maximum transverse shear, normal bending, combined stresses, and provides stress distributions along the beam, including torsion and axial effects. You can also review stress locations within the section.

Full Hand Calculations
SkyCiv Beam provides full hand calculation steps for analysis results, including:
- Hand Calculations for reaction forces
- Hand Calculations for Shear Force Diagrams (Method of cuts/ Sections)
- Bending Moment Diagrams (Method of cuts/ sections)
- Moment Distribution Method for Indeterminate Beams
Comprehensive Section Library
SkyCiv Beam integrates with SkyCiv Section Builder for section analysis:
- You can load sections from a library of over 20,000 standard profiles covering Australian, European, American, Canadian, and UK standards.
- Build-up and composite sections can be created as needed.
- Custom shapes can be imported from DXF files.
- Section operations include rotation, mirroring, and translation.
- Materials can be assigned from the database or defined as custom materials.
Integrated Design Checks
SkyCiv Beam has fully integrated design functionality for steel, timber, cold-formed, and concrete beams. Our design calculations show step-by-step working for full transparency.
- Steel Member Design for AISC 360, AS 4100, CSA S-16, BS-5950, Eurocode 3, IS-800, NZS 3404 and more.
- Cold-formed Steel Design for AISI, Eurocode and AS 4600.
- Wood Design as per NDS, CSA, Eurocode and AS 1720.
SkyCiv Beam has a powerful optimizer that quickly finds the most efficient section for your design.
Customizable PDF Reporting
Create detailed, customized reports of your beam analysis using our built-in reporting module, so you can download records for yourself and your clients. Choose exactly what you want to add to your report and instantly create a downloadable PDF.
3D Beam Rendering
3D rendered output is available for visualizing results:
- You can view bending stress, shear stress, deflection, rotation, and other result types.
- Beam deflection animations are available at real and scaled magnitudes.
- Coloured contours and result scaling are provided to assist with interpretation.

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.
Powerful Integrations,
Zero Disruption
testimonials
Trusted by thousands
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 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
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
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.
