The Scia Engineer software is designed and developed to provide structural engineers and designers with an effi cient, comprehensive and robust tool for modelling, analysing, designing and producing drawings of steel, concrete, timber, aluminium and composite structures.

 

Scia Engineer contains a calculation system for static, dynamic and stability analysis of structures and for their design according to appropriate technical building standards. It is based on the fi nite element method and used to calculate and design structures consisting of 1D components such as columns, beams, curved members and 2D components such as walls, plates, curved shells, etc.
Scia Engineer is also a platform used for modelling structural work in 3D; it has a dual model (structural model and analysis model) and is strong component for BIM (Building Information Modelling). The software’s open interface, has resulted in customized applications for specialized sectors of the construction industry eg: pipe modelling, scaffolding, pre-engineered buildings, mixed concrete steel bridges, etc.
