From the first node to the stamped report, every module of STRIX works on one model and one source of truth. Here is what each part does — and how it stays accurate.
A direct-manipulation 3D modeler for nodes, members, walls and slabs — with CAD import and automatic story generation, so the model is built in minutes, not days.
Linear static through nonlinear time-history — all driven by the OpenSees solver, with no TCL scripting and a responsive, cancellable run.
Automatic RC and steel design to KCI/KDS and KBC/AISC — with biaxial interaction, shear design and STRIX checks where every number traces back to its source.
Custom ASDShellQ4 shell elements eliminate the shear-locking that makes naive shells 16–19% over-stiff — wall demands track industry references within ±3%.
Enter the building parameters and STRIX derives wind and seismic loads, story distributions and design response spectra to KBC/KDS — then runs a first-level seismic evaluation.
Integrated ATC-40 Pushover and nonlinear time-history analysis with FEMA backbones — and inspect hinge formation member by member.
Auto-generate editable PDF reports — section details, rebar diagrams, force tables and structural plan drawings — then refine them in a true page editor.
Natural-language modeling, an in-app KDS chatbot and pre-analysis model review run across the whole workflow — with your own API key and your data kept local.
No black box. The engines, elements and standards behind every result.
