Reliable, Easy to Use Design Software

SkyCiv Reinforced Concrete Design Software

Seamlessly integrated with Structural 3D, SkyCiv’s Reinforced Concrete Design modules give structural engineers the tools to analyse and design concrete beams, columns and slabs to a range of international building codes.

Designed for an efficient concrete design workflow, the modules make it easy to analyse and design concrete frames, with detailed reporting providing clear visibility into calculation procedures and design results.

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.

Overview

Concrete Member Design allows users to design RC beams, columns and slabs through an intuitive and streamlined workflow.

  • Run complete calculations for ACI 318, EN2, CSA, A23, BS 8110, and AS 3600.

  • Graphical interface to allow full visibility when editing rebar arrangements.

  • Add multiple layers of top, bottom, and stirrup reinforcement.

  • Import multiple load combinations from US, UK, EU, CAN, and AUS libraries.

  • Add forces or use SkyCiv’s analysis software to import in results.

  • Results are documented in reports and summarised in the interface.

  • Comprehensive documentation, including verification models.

Detailed calculation reports

SkyCiv believes engineers should have access to all the information about their designs. This includes the calculations made by the software and is a key part of how we support effective concrete structure design software workflows. The reports detail:

  • References to relevant chapters and checks (for ACI 318, EN2, CSA A23, BS 8110, and AS 3600).

  • Custom Company logo and model setup information.

  • Detailed calculations of plastic centroid values.

  • Relevant assumptions and failure criteria.

  • Clear pass/fail summary results.

  • Download Sample Reinforced Concrete Calculation Report.

Integrated with SkyCiv Structural 3D

With nothing to download or install, you can instantly pull the forces, spans, loads, and load combinations directly from your structural analysis model. Instantly check your model for flexure, shear, axial, and much more.

  • Also fully integrated with SkyCiv Beam.

  • Forces automatically imported from structural models.

  • Supports load combinations from ASCE 7-10, AS 1170, EN1 and NBCC.

  • Spans, cross-sections and materials imported from your model.

  • Class and group members together, to complete one design for multiple members.

Custom Section Design

The SkyCiv Concrete Section Design module allows you to analyse any concrete profile and reinforcement arrangement.

  • Use typical concrete shapes or define your own custom profile.

  • Create any reinforcement arrangement for analysis.

  • Supports database and custom materials.

  • Review moment and axial capacities, stress profiles and neutral axis locations.

  • Generate 3D interaction surfaces and moment-curvature diagrams.

  • Produce and export detailed calculation reports .

Composite Member Design

Design composite beams and columns quickly with SkyCiv’s Composite Member Design Module. The software combines straightforward modelling with comprehensive design checks for common composite beam and column configurations.

  • Design composite beams with or without metal decking.

  • Check strength, shear connectors, composite action and serviceability.

  • Analyse and design encased, rectangular hollow and circular hollow composite columns about both principle axes.

  • Select standard steel sections or create custom sections using SkyCiv Section Builder.

  • Supports AISC 360-16 and AS 2327-2017.

Reinforced concrete slab design

SkyCiv also has powerful slab design capabilities for ACI 318, AS3600 and EN2 for concrete slab and plate design. This is available under our slab design module, which includes the following features:

  • Automatically imports materials and analysis results from S3D.

  • Automatically imports cutouts, mesh and plate attributes from S3D.

  • Assign different reinforcement zones.

  • Design and optimize reinforcement.

  • Review moment and axial capacities, stress/strains, stress contours, and utility ratios.

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.
