Software Intro

CYPE 3D is a powerful structural analysis and design solution for three-dimensional structures made of steel, concrete, composite steel and concrete, aluminium, timber and other materials. It enables engineers to model, analyse, verify and optimise structural elements, connections and foundations within an integrated 2D and 3D working environment.

Overview

CYPE 3D provides a complete workflow for modelling, analysing and designing three-dimensional structures. Engineers can define nodes, bars, plates and shells, assign structural materials, configure load cases and combinations, and perform the required code-based checks from a unified interface.

The software supports steel, reinforced concrete, composite, aluminium, timber and user-defined structural elements. It can analyse node displacements, support reactions, internal forces, deformations and ultimate-limit-state checks. Advanced capabilities include linear buckling analysis, modal vibration analysis, pushover analysis, seismic analysis and fire-resistance checking.

CYPE 3D also supports the design and verification of welded and bolted connections, baseplates and foundation elements such as pad footings, pile caps, tie beams and strap beams. Project geometry can be created directly or imported from IFC, DWG, DXF and text-based files.

After analysis, the software generates detailed calculation reports and structural drawings. Results can be exported in formats including PDF, DOCX, DWG, DXF, CSV, IFC and GLTF, supporting coordination with BIMserver.center, CYPECAD, CYPE Connect and Autodesk Revit workflows.

Applications

CYPE 3D can be applied across a wide range of structural engineering projects and workflows, including:

  • Three-dimensional steel-framed structures
  • Reinforced concrete and composite structures
  • Aluminium and timber structures
  • Industrial buildings, framed structures and trusses
  • Structural modelling using nodes, bars, plates and shells
  • Static, seismic, wind, snow and temperature load analysis
  • Linear buckling and global stability analysis
  • Modal vibration and pushover analysis
  • Fire-resistance verification of structural sections
  • Welded and bolted connection design
  • Baseplate and structural foundation design
  • Pad footing, pile cap, tie beam and strap beam analysis
  • Code-compliance checks and calculation reports
  • Structural drawing production
  • IFC-based BIM coordination
  • Integration with CYPECAD and CYPE Connect
