Problem
Structural engineers often rely on manual calculations and spreadsheets, which are time-consuming, error-prone, and difficult to manage, especially when dealing with complex projects and multiple building codes. Existing structural design software can be clunky, hard to trust, and may not integrate well with existing workflows.
Solution
ClearCalcs is a cloud-based platform that streamlines structural design calculations by providing a library of over 100 pre-built calculators compliant with US, AU, EU, CA, and NZ building codes. The platform eliminates the inefficiencies associated with spreadsheets by automating calculations, providing clear step-by-step solutions, and integrating references to relevant formulas and design standards. Users can also build custom calculators using a drag-and-drop interface or integrate the platform with other engineering tools and data sources. ClearCalcs aims to enhance accuracy, save time, and improve collaboration for structural engineering teams.
Target Audience
ClearCalcs is designed for structural engineers, designers, and engineering teams who need to perform accurate and efficient structural design calculations.
