CalcSteel
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.

ConstruSteel
Easily generate scribing lines/layout marking on steel profiles and plates for quick & easy assembly in the workshop. Advanced bar nesting software to optimize material use (such as steel beams and flat bars) for less waste and efficient production. To reduce failure costs, improve quality and speed up production, ConstruSteel provides Advanced Scribing software for steel fabricators, steel suppliers and steel service centers. Advanced Scribing is a unique Tekla Structures plug-in for scribing steel/layout marking steel beams and plates for the structural steel industry. By adding your own defined scribing/layout marking on selected or all steel profiles in your 3D BIM model, the production data (.nc1 files) for CNC machines is updated automatically.
