Free Structural Design Software Demo
A quick tutorial on how to use the SkyCiv free Design Software.
This tutorial will demonstrate the steps from loading the module, to adding in project details, members, sections, materials, and loads. Finally, the demo will run the design check and review the results from the AISC 360 example.
Integrated Design Modules
Available in different country codes including USA, Europe, AU, Canada and more.
For SkyCiv Professional users, you can access all existing Design Modules, all built into our very own powerful Structural Analysis Software.
You can load any design modules you need within a few clicks right inside the platform, without having to manually input your loads and members. This greatly improves your productivity by providing you a more efficient and economical structural analysis and design solution.
Structural Frame Design Software
SkyCiv makes it easy to design. Whether it's hot rolled, cold formed, timber or concrete, SkyCiv can help with all your frame designs. SkyCiv's structural frame design software integrates powerful analysis with clear and accurate designs.
Steel design is one of the most common materials in structural design. With integrated modules for AISC 360, AISI, AS4600, AS4100, Eurocode and BS 5950 to name a few our steel design software will allow you to check, optimize and report on your frame designs.
We also have you covered for other materials, including timber frame design. With integrated NDS and AS1720 modules, we'll have your residential and other timber frames designed in a matter of minutes!

At SkyCiv, we've been committed to innovating and challenging existing workflows to save engineers time in their work processes and designs.
“The ease of use and the presentation of the results are both awesome. I have had ongoing interaction with the support team and everyone is excellent!”
Mitch Frumkin, CEO of Kipcon
"It is used for various civil and mechanical engineering courses and the students love it. We are happy with the continuous updates to SkyCiv as well, highly recommended."
Dr Kenneth R. Leitch, Assoc. Prof. at Texas A&M
“SkyCiv has been a great tool to help efficiently and clearly document and update design results for a member of a small company with multiple responsibilities.”
Lydia Fahrenkrug, Engineer at MT Solar
“It was easily the most intuitive package available to learn; it is particularly easy to build the 3D model and define nodes, members, supports, materials, sections, then apply loads & combinations.”
Stuart Agars, Managing Director of Struct-Sure Limited
