SkyCiv Base Plate Design
Base Plate Design software that is true to the SkyCiv product line - powerful, online and easy to use. This design software will allow you to model the anchors, welds, stiffeners as well as the actual base plate and concrete supports.
With quick design calculations, the software will give you a clear pass or fail for a range of design standards including American, European and Australian Standards. With comprehensive and clear step-by-step reporting, you'll also understand exactly what the software is doing. Model a range of different column base plate designs, using SkyCiv!
Features
Easy and powerful modeling, design and reporting
Full Calculation Reports
SkyCiv believes engineers should have access to all the information of their designs. This includes the calculations made by the software. SkyCiv Base Plate Design reports show the full step-by-step calculations, structural engineers can review:
- References to relevant chapters and checks (for ACI / AISC, Eurocode and Australian Standards
- Custom Company logo and model setup information
- Detailed calculations of anchor, concrete and other checks
- Relevant assumptions and failure criteria
- Clear pass/fail summary results

Case Studies
Tried and Tested by Real Engineers around the World
“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.”
