Structural design challenges for Canadian engineers

Canadian Engineers work across a variety of structural design conditions, from heavy snow and wind loads to significant seismic demands ranging from residential, commercial and industrial projects. These demands require software that’s not only powerful but fully aligned with Canadian codes such as NBCC, CSA S16, CSA A23.3, CSA O86 and more.

Although Canadian Codes are well supported across industry, many engineers workflows remain complex and fragmented – often requiring multiple tools, detailed verification steps and supplementary spreadsheets to move efficiently from analysis to compliant design.

SkyCiv is built differently. Our cloud-based software is a combination of analysis, Canadian code compliant design and documentation in one place. With integrated support of NBCC and CSA standards, clear downloadable reports that document calculations and workflows that reduce reliance on fragmented tools, SkyCiv aids engineers move confidently from analysis to design.

Quality tested and reviewed by local Canadian engineers based in Canada, SkyCiv provides accurate software – backed by timely, practical assistance when it matters.

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.
