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.

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.

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.
