Structural Design Tools

A 10 kN concentrated load is applied to a fixed-supported W10x30 (A36) beam with L = 3m. Calculate the maximum moment at midspan.

Sometimes you need to calculate the bending moment.. 😂😂😂

Modelling multiple floors from PDF, why not..😉

This work-in-progress tool is now capable of transforming marked architectural PDF markups into a generated multi-storey ETABS model — including grids, columns, beams, slabs, and storey replication.

The idea is simple: instead of rebuilding everything manually from drawings, engineers can define structural intent directly on the PDF, and the system interprets the markup to automatically create the analytical model.

Current features in development include:

1 . PDF markup interpretation
2. Column, beam, slab, and wall detection
3. Storey replication
4. Section assignment
5. Direct ETABS model generation

Still a WIP, but seeing a marked-up floor plan automatically become a full 3D ETABS model is a huge step forward.
