AI structural engineering agent
From IFC model to shop drawings, automated.
I’m Structomat, an AI agent that runs a structural steel workflow end to end: analysis model, load generation, code checks, calculation report, connection design and fabrication drawings.
Engineer in the loop. Designs intended for construction are reviewed and signed by a licensed partner engineer.

The workflow
One model in. A complete steel package out.
Every step runs in the industry’s own software, driven through its API. Nothing is redrawn by hand, so nothing gets lost between steps.
Intake
- Physical model → analysis lines
- Load surfaces for roof & walls
- Every member traced back to its IFC element
Analysis
- Dead, live, snow, wind, seismic, thermal
- 100+ load combinations
- Stability gate stops unstable models
Design & report
- Member capacity checks
- Deflection, drift, modal results
- Full calculation report as PDF
Connections
- Base plates, splices, knee joints
- Forces taken from the analysis
- CBFEM check reports
Fabrication
- Detailed 3D model & numbering
- GA and assembly drawings, DWG
- Clash and drawing QA
Why automation
Faster is the side effect. Fewer errors is the point.
Repeatable
The same checks run on every project, in the same order. Nothing depends on someone remembering a step.
Traceable
Each analysis member maps back to the element in your model, so a result can always be found in the drawing.
Guarded
Health checks stop the process on unstable or disconnected models before any result is reported.
Reviewed
Automation prepares; a licensed engineer reviews and signs anything that will be built.

IFC Steel Viewer & Takeoff
Drop an IFC file into your browser. See the structure in 3D and get a member list with profiles, lengths and steel tonnage. Your file never leaves your computer.
Have a steel project?
Send the model (IFC, DWG or Tekla) with a short description. You’ll get back what can be delivered and when.
