CivilAxis

A global structural engineering platform - calculation tools, a standards reference spanning Eurocode, American and Vietnamese codes, and an AI that ties them together. Reference, calculate and share, all in one place.

Our mission

CivilAxis exists to make everyday structural engineering faster and more reliable: bring the standards you need, the calculations you run, and an AI that understands them together in one platform - from preliminary sizing to detailed design. It is built to be code-agnostic and global, working across Eurocode, American and Vietnamese practice, and it stays precise, code-aware and honest about its assumptions.

At a glance

CivilAxis is a free web platform for structural engineering, launched in 2026. It covers three code families - Eurocode, American (AISC) and Vietnamese (TCVN) - and is published in English and Vietnamese.

Our story

CivilAxis started from a simple frustration: the standards, spreadsheets and reference PDFs an engineer needs are scattered across a dozen places, and every check means re-deriving the same formulas by hand. We wanted one home where the code clauses, the calculations and a knowledgeable assistant live side by side - so more time goes into engineering judgement and less into hunting for a table or rebuilding a spreadsheet.

What began as a handful of Eurocode calculators has grown into a global platform: tools that already speak several codes - Eurocode, American (AISC) and Vietnamese TCVN - alongside a searchable standards library, a theory library that shows the method behind each tool, section catalogues for steel, rebar and timber, a structural AI that now reaches into Revit, AutoCAD and Excel, and a community of engineers. Wherever you practise, the goal is the same - trustworthy answers, in your code, in one place.

What we offer

Calculation tools
Code-checked engines for wind, sections, beams, connections, welds, anchors and more - many already multi-code (Eurocode, American AISC and TCVN). Each shows its assumptions and the clauses behind the result, not just a bare pass or fail. Section catalogues cover steel, rebar and timber down to individual sizes.
Standards and theory
Eurocode (EN 1990-1999), American AISC and Vietnamese TCVN tables, material grades and partial factors - searchable, cross-referenced and bilingual. The Theory Library explains the method behind each tool, and Design Data puts grades, bolts, anchorage and lap lengths in one lookup.
Structural AI and connectors
An assistant grounded in the ingested standards: it cites the actual clauses, explains the reasoning, and can call the same calculation engines to check a member for you. Live Connectors bring it into Revit, AutoCAD and Excel, with more applications on the way.
Insights
Articles written by engineers on real design problems - worked examples, code changes, guides and case studies from the field. Published in English and Vietnamese, and open to any signed-in contributor.
Workspace
A private space that keeps your work: saved tool projects you can reopen later, plus notes, tasks, a calendar, finance tracking and photo milestones you can publish as a shared story.
Community
A feed of practising engineers - ask questions, share what you are working on, and follow the people whose work you want to keep up with.

How we build it

Every tool is checked against the code it cites and shows its working - the assumptions, the clauses and the intermediate numbers - instead of a bare pass or fail, so you can trust it and defend it. We keep the interface bilingual and the core free for the profession, not locked behind a licence.

And we build to be global. Rather than tie you to one region, we keep widening coverage across Eurocode, American and Vietnamese standards - with more to come - on the same foundation, so a team working across markets can stay in one place.

Who it is for

Civil, structural and geotechnical engineers - from students learning the codes to practitioners checking sections on a deadline, and consultants preparing calculations for a client. Whether you work to Eurocode, American or Vietnamese standards, need a quick preliminary size, a defensible detailed check, or a fast look-up of a partial factor, CivilAxis is built to fit real workflows. It is free to use and built for the profession.
