Civil & structural engineering

Engineered precision, digital speed.

FEM Structures pairs deep structural engineering judgment with modern digital tools — from analysis and design to Tekla automation and online engineering calculators.

Who we are

An engineering firm first, a software studio where it creates leverage.

FEM Structures is first an engineering service company. The core work is civil and structural engineering: analysis, design, checking, coordination, and buildable documentation.

Software products support that work — Tekla plugins, drawing automation, and a growing suite of online design calculators — but they are not the whole company.

"We deliver reliable engineering today while building the tools that make tomorrow's design, detailing, and checking workflows faster."

Engineering services

Focused support from concept to detailed output.

Every engagement is backed by practical engineering judgment and tools that keep deliverables consistent, checked, and buildable.

Structural design

Building structures, steel framing, concrete elements, foundations, and lateral systems — sized and checked to code.

Modeling & analysis

Engineering models, load paths, stability review, member sizing, and practical design iteration with clear documentation.

Drawing & coordination

Structural drawings, review support, and Tekla-related workflows that keep project teams aligned and communication clean.

Foundations & earthworks

Isolated and strip footings, pads, tie beams, and practical foundation packages that coordinate with site conditions.

Design checking

Independent review of calculations, models, and drawings to catch issues before they reach fabrication or site.

Custom engineering workflows

Spreadsheets, small utilities, automation, and future online calculators for the repetitive design tasks that waste time.

How we work

A clear path from brief to buildable.

Four focused stages keep every project moving, documented, and checked.

01

Consult

We clarify requirements, loads, codes, and constraints so the scope and deliverables are agreed up front.

02

Analyze

Models and load paths are built, stability is reviewed, and members are sized through practical iteration.

03

Design

Steel, concrete, and foundations are designed to code with clear calculations and buildable details.

04

Document

Drawings, reports, and models are produced, checked, and coordinated — often accelerated with our own tools.

Digital tools

Plugins and automation built around real engineering work.

Alongside design services, FEM Structures develops tools that speed up drawing production, checking, and repetitive workflows.

Drawing Color Studio Automated GA drawing coloring for Tekla Structures — by profile, phase, material, class, assembly, or UDA.
Project standards Repeatable, project-level coloring standards applied consistently across entire drawing sets.
Automation on the way A growing family of Tekla extensions and online engineering calculators for repeated design tasks.

Online calculators

Design tools coming to the browser.

A suite of web-based engineering calculators currently in development — quick, checked, and tied to the way engineers actually work.

Coming soon

Steel member design

Quick member checks for beams, columns, and ties with load combinations and utilization output.

Coming soon

Footing design

Pad and strip footing checks — bearing pressure, bending, punching, and reinforcement estimates.

Coming soon

Load take-down

Column and wall load take-downs from tributary areas with live and dead load accumulation.

Coming soon

Deflection checker

Simple span and continuous member deflection checks against span/depth and serviceability limits.

Coming soon

Bolt & connection checks

Bolt shear and bearing checks for common connections with member and plate thickness input.

Coming soon

Section properties

Quick area, inertia, and section modulus lookups for standard steel sections and built-up shapes.
