Why Choose Simplex Column?

Ease of Use

Carry out column design and analysis quickly, and add local eccentricities to account for connections, and local deviations.

Clear visualisation

Clear visualisation of the normal force and moment relationship using interactive interaction diagrams.

Interoperability

Connect Simplex Column to your bespoke workflows using the Python SDK, enabling automation and data exchange.

Fire Design

Carry out fire design for concrete, steel and timber columns in accordance with Eurocode.

Key Features of Simplex Column

Updated user interface: We have updated the Simplex Column interface with new styling and clearer core concepts, making it easier to work with.
Clear visualisations: Visual components such as the interaction diagram, together with a new and improved report layout, make it easier to understand, design and document your column designs.
Load combination generator: Generate load combinations automatically to save time and reduce the risk of errors, or combine them with your own manual combinations.
Multiple methods: Calculate your column according to the general method with non-linear geometry and material, or use the simplified methods based on nominal stiffness or nominal curvature in accordance with Eurocode.

Biaxial state: Consider biaxial loading together with normal force. Switch between directions by clicking the section cuts or selecting the view from the bottom bar.
Load eccentricities: Apply eccentricities to loads to account for local deviations, alignment and connections.
Multi-material: Design steel, timber and concrete columns in one solution, including fire design. Apply imperfections and carry out second-order analysis.
SDK: Communicate with Simplex Column using the SDK for bespoke workflow scripts, automation or AI integration
Auto design: Automatically design your reinforcement layout and your section size using easy-to-use input.
