BuildSoft Diamonds 2025 build 9173.25028

Software for structural analysis of steel, concrete and timber constructions.

Diamonds is the perfect software for analysis of steel, concrete and timber structures. Watch some videos, look at the brochure or read more about the advantages of Diamonds. Each Diamonds license can be extended with additional modules such as fire resistance, seismics, moving loads.

Steel
On executing the Eurocode and AISC steel resistance and buckling verifications, the appropriate cross-section classification is taken into account. Buckling lengths and lateral torsional buckling supports are specified in no time or automatically calculated. Based on these checks Diamonds performs a cross-section optimization. Connections can be transferred to PowerConnect.

• Eurocode 3 (UK, DE, ES, PL, ...) and AISC- LRFD
• Extendable built-in section library
• Cross section classification
• Buckling length calculation
• Lateral torsional buckling supports
• Cross-section optimization

Concrete
Diamonds calculates the optimal reinforcement solution according to Eurocode and ACI. This serves as a starting point for a practical reinforcement definition. You can then calculate cracked deflections and crack widths for bar and plate elements or verify punching for plates and footings. For beams, complete reinforcement drawings can be generated with ConCrete Plus.

• Eurocode 2 (UK, DE, ES, PL, ...) and ACI
• Optimal reinforcement quantities
• Cracked deflection with creep
• Crack widths
• Deformation in time
• Punching verification

Timber
Diamonds calculates the deflection with creep effects, based on the service class. On execution the Eurocode timber verifications, buckling lengths and lateral torsional buckling supports are taken into account. These can be user-assigned or automatically calculated. Based on these unity check verifications Diamonds calculates the most optimal cross-sections.

• Eurocode 5 (BE, NL)
• Service class and load duration class
• Buckling length calculation
• Lateral torsional buckling supports
• Creep calculation

Diamonds’ analysis engine is based on the robust and powerful PARDISO sparse solver technology. Combining high speed performance with minimal memory usage, Diamonds will solve both simple 2D and complex 3D structural analysis models in no time.
