Industry-Leading 3D Structural Analysis & Design Platform

Empowering engineers to bring complex designs to life

From soaring skyscrapers to massive stadiums, from industrial plants to one-of-a-kind architectural icons — equips structural engineers with the tools to model, analyze, and design any structure with confidence and efficiency.

Key Features

Intuitive Modeling & Interface

• Work in a familiar CAD-style environment that simplifies the creation of even the most detailed structures.
• Engineers can build models using graphical tools or spreadsheet-style input.
  ighlights include customizable grids, snap tools, smart templates, multi-view layouts, quick-access panels, and shortcut-driven workflows for faster modeling.

Advanced Load & Analysis Capabilities

• Easily apply different types of loads — from point and line loads to complex surfaces, wall loads, thermal effects, and enforced displacements.
• Handle specialized scenarios like moving loads (vehicles, cranes) or automatically generate wind and seismic loads per global standards.
• A powerful finite element engine supports meshing (quad/tri), response spectrum, eigenvalue, and time-history analyses for static, dynamic, and performance-based studies.

Multi-Material Design Support

• Model structures using both 1D and 2D elements with advanced controls such as end releases, offsets, rigid links, and P-Delta effects.
• Ensure compliance and optimization across a wide range of materials: steel, concrete, masonry, timber, aluminum, and cold-formed systems.
• Specialized checks for shear walls, buckling-restrained braces, and code-specific modules help engineers refine designs quickly.

Visual Results & Reporting

• Get instant insights with graphical force diagrams, deflection animations, and colorful contour maps.
• All results can be exported into detailed, customizable reports that combine graphics, spreadsheets, and governing calculations, giving engineers transparency and verification at every step.

Integrated Workflow & BIM Connectivity

• Seamlessly connect RISA-3D with the broader RISA Building Suite, ensuring a consistent workflow from concept to construction.
• Exchange data effortlessly with industry-leading BIM tools like Autodesk Revit, Tekla Structures, and Archicad for true multidisciplinary collaboration.

Why Engineers Trust

Engineers value our platform for its speed, accuracy, and usability. Complex structural models can be created, analyzed, and refined in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods.

Its spreadsheet-like inputs combined with interactive graphics make model adjustments quick and straightforward — especially useful for large or iterative projects.
With strong integration, reliability, and professional support, we has earned its reputation as a trusted platform worldwide.



Why It Matters

• One environment for everything: All phases — modeling, loading, analysis, redesign, and reporting — are handled in a single workspace.
• Versatility across industries: From high-rise buildings to bridges and industrial facilities, engineers can rely on multi-material and multi-code compliance.
• Smarter teamwork: Smooth BIM compatibility and integration with other RISA tools enable teams to collaborate more efficiently and deliver results faster.
