Private preview — in development
Structural Design
Design and analysis for steel eccentrically braced frames. In development.
There is nothing to sign in to yet. The sections below describe what is being built and the boundaries it is being built inside.
What we have decided
Not a feature list — none of this has shipped. These are the constraints the software is being built under.
One lateral system first
Steel eccentrically braced frames, taken all the way, before a second system is started.
A published scope, enforced
A model outside the scope will be refused with an explicit error and its reason. Approximating it silently is the failure mode we are designing against. None of this is built yet.
Proposals are proposals
Section proposals are generated designs requiring engineering review. They will never be presented as a verdict, and a proposal that has not been analysed will be shown as unverified.
Provenance, not screenshots
Every number is intended to resolve to the model revision, analysis run and clause behind it. That traceability is the product, not a reporting feature.
FAQ
Can I use it today?+
No. This is a private preview in development — there is no released product and no sign-up. Tell us about your work on the contact form and we will be in touch as the preview opens.
What will it cover first?+
Steel eccentrically braced frames on a New Zealand code profile. The scope section above states the full envelope and its exclusions — read that rather than this summary, because a shortened envelope is a broader claim than the real one.
Which design standards will it work from?+
New Zealand steel and loadings standards. We are not publishing a list of implemented clauses until each one is attributable to its source and has passed review — a list is a claim, and we do not intend to make it early.
What about ETABS models?+
Import from ETABS is the intended path and is being built. It does not work yet, and we will say so here until it does.
Where would my data be stored?+
In our Google Cloud project in the australia-southeast1 (Sydney) region. We do not sell your data.
What does it cost?+
Nothing is for sale. Pricing does not exist yet.
