Why Choose Simplex Foundation?

Ease of Use

Carry out foundation design and analysis quickly and easily, helping you work faster with fewer clicks.

Interoperability

Connect with FEM-Design for data transfer. Or use the Python and Grasshopper toolbox for bespoke workflows.

Transparent

Print clear, transparent reports with step-by-step calculations in accordance with Eurocode with references.

Auto Design

Automatically generate optimised foundation designs to save time and reduce material use.

Explore Simplex Foundations’s Capabilities

Intuitive user interface: Start designing in seconds with user-friendly cloud software, with no set-up required. Replace time-consuming Excel work with a more streamlined workflow.
Foundation design in accordance with Eurocode: Design and verify strip and pad foundations for point and line loads, including geotechnical calculations and full soil–structure interaction, in accordance with EC0, EC1, EC2 and EC7, including the national annexes for Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Norway and Great Britain. The software is also being prepared for the upcoming second-generation Eurocodes to remain future-proof.

Optimised designs: Use the auto-design feature to find optimised foundation dimensions and reinforcement layouts that reduce material use without compromising safety. First optimise the foundation size, then run the reinforcement design as a second step. Stay compliant with Eurocodes while also reducing CO₂ emissions and carbon footprint.
Combined Capacity Checks: Check both soil and concrete capacity — all within one program

Punching calculation: Carry out relevant punching checks in accordance with EC2, with clear illustrations of critical sections and design conditions as part of the overall foundation design.
Automated reporting: Generate detailed reports from predefined templates, including analysis results and step-by-step design checks, making verification simpler and presentation clearer for all stakeholders.
Circular failure line: In addition to the standard failure line, Simplex Foundation also considers a circular failure line in accordance with recent DSSSE guidance and methods. This optional check is available for all annexes.

Simplex Foundation is built for structural engineers who value an intuitive tool that saves time and materials, designed to meet modern engineering standards.

With 40 years of experience in engineering software development, our platform offers advanced calculations, auto-design capabilities, transparent results, connection with FEM-Design, and API for Grasshopper.

There are no downloads or installations, just a smarter way to design.

Simplex Foundation Design API Video

Smart interoperability: Simplex Foundation can be accessed through our API toolbox in Grasshopper for workflow automations.

You install the package using the package manager in Rhino. Inside Grasshopper you login to your Simplex Foundation account by going to Simplex/Login in the main menu - now you are ready to go!

Simplex Foundation also offers a connection to FEM-Design, allowing you to export your reaction forces from FEM-Design and import in Simplex Foundation for an easy transfer of data in complex loading situations.

Transition Roadmap

From Legacy to Simplex

Now

Q3 2027

Q2 2028

Onwards

Stage 01 Stage 02 Stage 03

Stage 1: First-Generation Eurocode

Now → Q3 2027

During this stage, we are introducing the SIMPLEX apps alongside our legacy software. Existing users of WIN-Statik, DIMENSION, JIGI and Matrix Geo will receive access to the corresponding SIMPLEX apps, in addition to their current licences, as soon as they become available. This gives you double licences and access to both platforms at the same time, helping you move to SIMPLEX gradually and with minimal disruption.

Stage 2: Transition Period

Q3 2027 → Q2 2028

During the Eurocode transition period, SIMPLEX will become the platform to be used for Eurocode generation 2. The basic Eurocode is already in place, and we are ready to implement the national annexes as they become available. You will still retain access to your existing WIN-Statik, DIMENSION, JIGI and Matrix Geo licences, but those legacy products will remain on Eurocode generation 1 and will not be updated to generation 2.

Stage 3: Second-Generation Eurocode

After Q2 2028

After the transition period, SIMPLEX will continue to grow with new products and innovations. The legacy products will still be available for old projects and for access to old calculation files. SIMPLEX is the future-proof platform for second-generation Eurocode and a future with AI-aided engineering.
