Online Structural Analysis and Design Software
SkyCiv Structural 3D is our most powerful online structural analysis software. This 3D frame analysis software allows you to model, analyse and design a wide range of structures.
The 100% cloud-based engineering software allows users to access their programs and files from a web browser, from anywhere, anytime! No need to install or update.
Different from traditional software that are clunky and difficult to use, SkyCiv is by far the most intuitive and easy-to-use structural engineering software for civil and structural engineers.

Features
Powerful Online Analysis And Design
Powerful Structural Analysis
- SkyCiv Structural 3D is a full-featured online structural analysis software - including beams, plates and cables.
- Quick and easy modelling with datasheet and smart drawing features
- Multiple Solver types including: Linear, P-Delta (non-linear), Buckling Analysis, Cable Analysis, Frequency and Response Spectrum Analysis
- Import Multiple Load Combinations from US, UK, EU, CAN and AUS libraries
- Review reactions, bending, shear, stress, deflection, buckling and many more results
- Input 3D structures or import .dxf files and also solve for 3D results
- Smart Repair Model Functionality to help you identify and repair model-issues.
Plates, Cables and Buckling
SkyCiv is a powerful structural analysis software - supporting a wide range of elements.
- Plate analysis - including deflection, shear/bending forces as well as a range of stress results. Includes a full meshing tool with multiple mesh types, cutouts, internal node detection that can be easily meshed and unmeshed.
- Supports Mindlin quadrilateral shell elements suitable for thick/thin plate analysis
- Run cable analysis with accurate P-delta (non-linear) analysis
- Prestress cables and adjust cable lengths
- Full buckling analysis capabilities to ensure safety against buckling
- Buckling Analysis displays buckling shape of your model in both accurate (longer solver time) and simplified
- Frequency and response spectrum analysis
Integrated Design Standards
SkyCiv Structural 3D is fully integrated with local design standards including AISC, ACI, ASCE, NDS Eurocode, Australian Standards and CSA:
- Integrated Load Combinations from ASCE, AS 1170, EN 1990 and NBCC
- Steel Member Design for AISC 360, AS 4100, CSA S-16, BS-5950, EN3, IS-800, plus more...
- Reinforced Concrete Member Design as per ACI-318, AS 3600, EN2
- Integrated Wind Load Design from ASCE 7-10, Eurocode, NBCC and AS 1170
- Connection Design for AISC 360
- Wood Design as per NDS, AS 1720
- Cold Formed Steel for AISI and AS4600
Integrated Section Builder
SkyCiv Structural 3D is fully integrated with SkyCiv Section Builder - our powerful online section analysis software:
- Save and Load sections from our library of Australia, European, American and UK standard sections
- Select from 15+ template shapes including I-beam, HSS, Channel etc...
- Cold Rolled shapes such as AISI libraries
- Your section isn't there? Simply add a custom section
- Perform operations such as: rotate, mirror and translate.
- Adding a section will also give the results of moment of inertia, centroids and further section properties.
- Preset materials means you can select your material from a drop down list for fast entry!
Easy Modelling Functionality
Speed up your modelling in SkyCiv's structural analysis software, with these easy to use features that allow you to model your structure much faster and easier.
- Enter nodes, members and plates using mouse click functions
- Run Repair Model to quickly locate and repair issues with your model
- Use the pen tool to draw and snap to global axes
- Use the SkyCiv Datasheet (much like a spreadsheet) to enter data in quickly
- Mass edit and change by simply multi selecting elements
- Inbuilt modelling operations such as repeat/mirror and curve members
Collaborate and Share
Collaborate online like Google Drive, with simplicity and ease. Share and collaborate on models in real-time with your team using the following simple sharing features:
- Share files easily with other members of your team
- SkyCiv Support team can see your models in real-time, so support has never been easier.
- Control permissions and access for other users
- Revision control allows you to see all the changes made to your model, and revery back to previous saves
- SkyCiv also maintains backups and archives, so if you lose a file contact us and we can recover it.
Powerful Reporting
SkyCiv S3D allows you to custom build your own analysis reports in PDF format, as well as output full calculation reports from within our design modules.
- Isolate single members
- Include custom saved screenshots
- Show full calculations of design modules, so you can review the assumptions, references and failure criteria of your designs
- Design summary reports showing green/red highlights for pass/fail
- Include your company logo on reports, marketing your company
- Full Calculation Reporting for design modules (AISC, ACI, AS, CSA and EN)

“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!”
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.
“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.”
