Welcome to our product updates for February 2025!

This month has been another exciting one at SkyCiv! We hosted the 2025 SkyCiv AI Hackathon where our team members got the opportunity to team up, inovar, and compete to build cutting-edge solutions for our users. We can’t wait to share the winning projects with you!

But that’s not all. Our team also introduced other updates across the platform, so scroll down to explore these new features!

Key Highlights

• SkyCiv AI Hackathon Winners Announcement!
• Plataforma SkyCiv: Software now supports Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, Hindi, Portuguese, Serbian, Thai, and Vietnamese.
• SkyCiv Structural 3D: New AI Image Generator!
• Projeto de conexões SkyCiv: Stiffeners for Flange Plate Moment Connections (AISC 360-16).
• SkyCiv Quick Design: New ACI 318-19 Calculadora de coluna de concreto.

SkyCiv AI Hackathon Winners

SkyCiv Hackathon is the annual tradition that challenges us to build innovative solutions for structural engineers. Este ano, the top 3 submissions really blew away and we’re so excited to share them with you:

• 🥇DWG Converter – Convert 2D floor plans into SkyCiv S3D models.
• 🥈AI Model Generator – Transform hand-drawn sketches, Imagens de livros didáticos, ou pedidos de texto nos modelos Skyciv S3D.
• 🥉SkyCiv Interpreter – Convert any image of an equation into code, incluindo Mathjax e JavaScript.

Watch our video for a sneak peek of these solutions!

Expanded Language Support!

Our platform now supports Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, Hindi, Portuguese, Serbian, Thai, and Vietnamese for Structural 3D, Feixe, and Section Builder.

Change your language via Account Settings → Software Settings → Software Language.

AI Image Generator – Now in Structural 3D!

One of our Hackathon-winning solutions is now live!

Este novo recurso dá vida aos seus projetos, permitindo que você visualize como seus modelos estruturais podem parecer uma vez construídos.

How to use the AI Image Generator:

1️⃣ Abra um modelo S3D no renderizador 3D
2️⃣ Navegue até a saída → Ai Image Gerator no menu superior
3️⃣ Gere e explore a visualização de sua modelo de IA do modelo!

Gostaríamos de ver o que você cria.

Experimente esta nova ferramenta e compartilhe suas melhores imagens conosco via bate -papo ao vivo ou nas mídias sociais!

SkyCiv Connection Design – New Update

We’ve made a key update to the wide flange beam-to-column moment connection using flange plates in Projeto de conexões SkyCiv. This improvement adds column stiffeners, which significantly improve the column’s capacity to resist axial and moment loads transferred from the beam while ensuring compliance with AISC standards.

Principais benefícios:

• Improved load distribution: Stiffeners help distribute the forces more effectively, reducing localized stresses and increasing the overall strength and stability of the connection.
• Enhanced structural integrity: This update ensures better performance in high-load applications and minimizes potential deformations or failures at the connection points.

SkyCiv Quick Design – ACI 318-19 Concrete Column

The latest addition to the SkyCiv Quick Design módulo, a ACI 318-19 Calculadora de coluna de concreto, enables users to design reinforced concrete rectangular and circular columns for tension, compressão, axial load, a curvatura, e cisalhar. It also verifies reinforcement spacing, ratio requirements, and concrete cover compliance per ACI 318-19, Capítulo 10.
