## Reviews

### "Use in Ecuador South American" — 4.0/5

> **Heinz** | *06 April 2021* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Quick subscription, agile environment, access from anywhere.
> 
> **Cons**: Tutorials in Spanish, I use it in Ecuador. Codes of other regions, in this case Ecuador.
> 
> The platform is very agile, even though it is in the cloud. As a senior engineer I really like all the applications to the point that I am thinking of not using Etabs.

### "intermediate stage - user review" — 4.0/5

> **Maarten** | *12 October 2020* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Automation and
 cross module interface
> 
> **Cons**: hand calculation sheet for windloads missing
> 
> Great - reponsive service and inherent willingess to improve platform and modules based on customer feedback

-----

### "User friendly and Accessible" — 4.0/5

> **Adrian** | *13 January 2016*
> 
> We invested in this software because it looked like an easy way to generate beam calculations efficiently. We really like that the interface is user-friendly and intuitive. In addition, it's easily accessible due to it being web-based.

-----

### "Awesome\!" — 5.0/5

> **Matthew** | *18 January 2016*
> 
> Had a really good experience with SkyCiv. I use the software for simple analysis and did not want to pay thousands of dollars. It helped me make simple checks (mainly deflections and bending stress) without having to hand calculate them. Highly recommend them, they were also very quick to reply to issues/questions as well.

-----

### "Very Helpful and Useful Engineering Software" — 5.0/5

> **Christopher** | *18 February 2016*
> 
> I found SkyCiv very useful for some of the work I have been undertaking over the last few months. Big advantage was that I didn't have to commit to an expensive licence.  Very easy to use and thorough results. Would highly recommend and will continue to use the software in the future.

The software allows users to build structural models and analyze shear, bending, deflection, stress, and more. The platform is completely cloud-based, enabling users to access their work and files via web browser, at any time. \n\nUsers are able to create and solve complex 3D structures with analysis on virtually any structure. SkyCiv Structural 3D's analysis features include deflection, (with X, Y, Z sum translations and X, Y, Z rotations), bending moment diagrams (BMD), shear force diagrams (SFD), axial forces, torsion, stress analysis, and full buckling. \n\nSkyCiv Structural 3D enables engineers to visualize their structures with a powerful 3D renderer, as well as view the way the structure will look and deflect using color contours. Users can inspect the structure’s geometry, and rotate around the 3D model from each angle for a complete structural analysis. \n\nSkyCiv allows users to save and load various sections from a library of American, European, Australian, and UK standard sections, as well as select a variety of beam sections, such as rectangular/square, hollow rectangular/square, hollow circular, circular,  channel sections, I-section, L-section, T-section, and triangular. Users can also add a custom section, and preset materials can be selected from a drop down list for quick entry. \n\nSkyCiv Structural 3D allows users to view and export their structural analysis text files in order to focus on specific results, with custom screenshots. The solution's unique \"single member\" function allows users to switch on specific critical members for a cleaner diagram view. Users can also download screenshots for reports and personal records. The platform allows users to store all files onto their SkyCiv account, which can be organized using the intelligent file manager.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/ad1dc4c3-0966-427d-9467-db7444d9ecb3.png","url":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/105821/skyciv-structural-3d","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/105821/skyciv-structural-3d#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.6,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":34},"offers":{"price":"69","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Linux, Chrome, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Manufacturing Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/666/manufacturing-engineering/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"SkyCiv Structural 3D","position":3,"item":"/software/105821/skyciv-structural-3d","@type":"ListItem"}],"@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/105821/skyciv-structural-3d#breadcrumblist"}]}
