Structural Steel Connection Design
SkyCiv Structural Steel Connection Design software offers prescriptive design calculations and checks as per the AISC 360-10 design code, for both ASD and LRFD as well as Eurocode 3 Design Standards. The structural design software is completely cloud-based, so there's nothing to download or install, and is run right from within your browser. Eurocode Connection Design and AISC Connection Design, right from your browser.
Features
Powerful Structural Analysis And Design
Design Connections with AISC 360 & EN3
The SkyCiv structural steel connection design software has the following great features:
- Range of connection types, including W-W and HSS-W standard connections
- Full 3D rendering to show bolts, plates and sections
- Prescriptive AISC 360 and Eurocode 3 checks for Shear and Moment Calculations
- Professional Drawings
- Export file as CAD (STEP) 3D model
- Clear summary of design results with green and red pass/fail results
- Detailed documentation with videos and tutorials on how to use the software.
Integrated with SkyCiv Structural 3D
All your connections forces and member properties are automatically imported into the SkyCiv Connection module - so you can view your model and connections at the same time.
- Connections display on the graphical interface
- Forces automatically imported from structural analysis model
- Supports load combinations from ASCE 7-10, AS 1170, EN1 and CSA
- Changes to your analysis model are auto-adjusted within the design module
- Class and group steel connections together, to complete one design for multiple connections
- Review all Connection Designs in 3D model with green/red/yellow result summaries
Powerful Graphics
Review your 3D model so you can see the various parts of the model in 3D space. The Connection Design module will also generate a full CAD file for you to export or send off to the draftsperson for final drawings. Don't have CAD? You can produce drawings directly from within the SkyCiv Connection Design module!
- Generate full CAD files (STEP) with bolt, plate and member connection assemblies
- Produce clear drawings directly from the module
- Clear and easy 2D references for user input
- Full 3D rendering display with wireframe and viewing settings
Full Calculation Reporting
SkyCiv Connection Design reports in the form of a summary report and a comprehensive calculations report. No more guesswork into what the software is calculating, these detailed professional reports show the step by step calculations including:
- References to relevant chapters and checks (for both AISC 360 & Eurocode 3)
- Custom Company logo and model setup information
- Detailed calculations of all checks
- Relevant assumptions and failure criteria
- Clear pass/fail summary results
- Download Sample Shear Connection Design Calculation Report

Case Studies
Tried and Tested by Real Engineers around the World
Industrial
Mitch was tasked with re-evaluating all of the original members and coming up with a cost effective solution to increase the efficiency of the air cool condenser..
Residential
Located in rural North Yorkshire in England, this unique project with it's "three-sided glazing" design was considered a large residential luxury development.
Institutional
The Dream Machine is a three-story children's climbing structure in Washington DC. The creative idea came from Gyroscope Studios of Oakland, California.
"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!"
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.
"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."
