High-End Packages for Structural Engineering SOFiSTiK

The 3D FEM ultimate and ultimate 50 packages provide all the tools for modern structural analysis in civil engineering and bridge design. In addition to the graphical input capability by the AutoCAD® add-on SOFiPLUS, the parametric axis - related graphical modeling CABD or the Master-cross section which allows any cross sectional profile, can be used.

The usage of Pre- and post-tensioned beam- and shell-elements, along with the ULS and SLS design and stress checks offer the capability of project analysis of prestressed concrete and composite systems. Full geometrically nonlinear analysis (Theory of 3rd order) gives the possibility for cable and shell buckling calculations. Traffic load calculation with influence line method and a large library of road and railway loads, is also available to the user. High-end SOFiSTiK technologies such as DYNA for dynamic analysis and HASE for semi-infinite solid simulation can be added optionally.

Building design projects are becoming increasingly demanding. Spectacular architectural designs paired with shorter and shorter construction times and the necessity to react to short-term changes pose significant challenges for structural engineers. This renders powerful and reliable software products indispensable tools for engineers and designers in the field of advanced building construction and design.

Suitable software solutions support seamless workflows from model creation over analysis and design up to the creation of required formwork and reinforcement plans, allowing for efficient and economic project processing. It is essential that structural engineers can fully rely on their software tools while modern requirements are fully met. State-of-the-art building design software needs to enable smooth collaboration as well as internal and external exchange, irrespective of programs used by the project parties. At SOFiSTiK we are committed to providing software for building design that lets you focus on what really matters. Whether small or highly complex construction projects, building design solutions by SOFiSTiK reliably assist you throughout the project phase and help ensure that you meet your individual project goals.
