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

Simplex Beam Design Software - User Interface

  • 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.

  • Load Import: Define your loading manually and calculate the internal force effect, or take combined internal force effects from another software and add them directly as internal forces to the column – or combine both.

  • Biaxial calculation: Consider biaxial loading together with normal force, enabling a 3D assessment. Switch between directions by clicking the section cuts or selecting the view from the bottom bar.

  • Multi-storey column definition: Define a column spanning multiple storeys by inserting supports and loads along its length.

  • 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

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.
