About

CalcSteel is a web-based structural steel design and analysis platform built to make professional engineering tools affordable and accessible. It features a full 3D browser editor that allows engineers to model structures directly online without downloads or installations. The platform includes a 6 DOF FEM solver and design verification according to major international standards such as AISC 360, Eurocode 3, NBR 8800, AS 4100, and IS 800. With over 640 steel profiles available, users can quickly assign sections and loads to their structural models. CalcSteel enables engineers to analyze, verify, and generate professional documentation and PDF drawings within minutes. Unlike traditional structural software that costs thousands per year, CalcSteel offers a free tier and paid plans starting at accessible monthly pricing. Designed for structural engineers, fabricators, firms, and students, it provides professional-grade tools without enterprise-level costs.

About

FrameWorks® Plus is a powerful structural modeling and drawing tool that supports your total workflow: drawing, modeling, analysis and reporting. Add value to your modeling process by integrating structural tasks with the plant creation process. Because it integrates with third-party analytical and steel detailing software, as well as with other Hexagon plant design software, FrameWorks Plus supports all parts of the structural engineering workflow to keep your data accurate and current. FrameWorks Plus fully supports PDS. You can create structural models of plants and, through an interface to PDS, share the most recent project data across your workplace and around the world. FrameWorks Plus integrates with the engineering and construction workflow. More than just a CAD program, FrameWorks Plus provides intelligent graphics that support easy modeling, analysis and reporting.
