Building analysis and design that shows its work.

Open your ETABS models in the browser. Every CSA, ACI and AISC check prints the clause and the formula with your numbers in it, and the solver passes CSI's own ETABS and SAFE verification problems before each release.

01 · Verification

Tested on the problems ETABS is verified on.

CSI publishes the problems ETABS and SAFE are checked against. We rebuilt every linear one as a release test, and a deploy stops if any of them falls outside its tolerance. Frames and shells were also compared once against OpenSees. See every benchmark.

03 · The assistant

Ask in plain English. Watch it edit the model.

A real session on a 25-storey podium-and-twin-tower model, sped up. Four requests: diagnose the failing checks, add shear walls, rescale the spectrum, show the result. Every edit is shown and undoable.

04 · Everyday buildings

A five-storey office, analysed and strength-checked in seconds

Most projects aren't towers. A typical concrete moment-frame office (4 × 3 bays, five storeys, ASCE 7 seismic and wind, response spectrum) analyses in under half a second in the browser, and all 255 beams and columns are checked to ACI 318-19 with utilisation shown on the model. Seismic detailing is listed as not checked, for the engineer to review.

  • Gravity, ELF, wind and response spectrum cases with code combinations
  • Concrete beam steel areas and column interaction checks
  • Drift, deflection and hand-check report on every run

05 · Workflow

From ETABS model to calc package.

Bring the model you already have. Leave with a printable package.

STEP 01

Open

Import .e2k models, or .EDB through ETABS on Windows. Units, auto lateral loads and combinations come with them.

STEP 02

Analyse & ask

Run gravity, ELF, wind and spectrum cases. Ask the assistant why drift changed, or have it make the fix.

STEP 03

Package

One PDF: cover, model summary, loads, results, checks, design tables and every calculation sheet.
