  • CRSI Retaining Wall Program - Interactive design of reinforced concrete retaining walls.
  • CSI COL - Design of simple and complex reinforced concrete columns.
  • CivilFEM - Civil/Structural customization of the ANSYS Finite Element program.
  • Concise Beam - Concise Beam is an easy to use Microsoft Windows based program for the design of precast concrete beams. Concise Beam will perform a load analysis and design checks in accordance with the latest edition of ACI 318, CSA A23.3 or AS3600. CSA S6 is also supported without moving loads. Key code parameters can be customized to simulate other design codes. The beam can be conventionally reinforced and pretensioned. It can model any cross-sectional shape and will allow the cross-section to vary prismatically (step-wise) over the length of the beam. A graphical editor allows the user to describe any cross-section, including voids, openings or cut-outs. Concise Beam currently works in two-dimensions but will also account for torsion along the beam. The user can work in metric or Imperial (US Customary) units, select from a variety of individual units (i.e. mm, cm, m), and switch back and forth at will. Libraries of industry standard cross-sections and materials are provided with Concise Beam. The standard libraries can be modified, extended and customized by the user.
  • GT Strudl - Structural Design & Analysis software programs for Architectural - Engineering - Construction (AEC), CAE/CAD, utilities, offshore, industrial, nuclear and civil works facilities. GT STRUDL integrates modeling, analysis, and design into a powerful information processing system. GT STRUDL key features include Linear and Nonlinear Static and Dynamic Analysis, Plastic Hinges, Pushover Analysis, and Buckling Analysis. A wide range of 2D and 3D elements are available including Cable and Base Isolation elements. US and International Steel and Concrete Design Codes.

  • Pile Cap Analysis and Design - Software for the design and analysis of new and/or out-of-tolerance pile groups and caps.
  • RC-PADD - RC-PADD stands for "Reinforced Concrete - Post-Analysis Designer and Detailer". It is a special-purpose program for the structural design of reinforced concrete building structures and the subsequent detailing. The post-analysis nature of the program gives it more power over conventional "integrated" programs that carry out altogether the structural analysis and the structural design. Once the structure is analyzed using a reliable structural analysis program, the model and the results are imported to RC-PADD, where the structural design and detailing are carried out.
  • RcSections - RcSections is a 32-bit Windows program designed specifically for structural engineers to perform axial-flexural analysis and design of concrete sections (beams, columns or walls) according to ACI 318-05/02 and ACI 318-99. It analyzes the uniaxial- or biaxial-bending capacity of multiple sections of various regular shapes (rectangular, round, Tee, I, L) and generic shapes (with openings) simultaneously in a fast and user-friendly manner. Multiple load sets may be input and checked against capacities of the sections. It features tabulated strain-P-M at every user defined neutral axis step, 2D P-Mx and P-My interaction diagrams, and even 3D P-Mx-My interaction surface built upon OpenGL(R)!
  • Rebar Development and Splice Length - Calculate required development and splice lengths for tension, hooked and compression splices according to ACI 318.
  • S-Frame - General 3D frame and finite elements structural analysis software.
