SDC Verifier simplifies structural engineering by providing a complete workflow from design and finite element analysis (FEA) to compliance with international standards. The software works both as a standalone application and integrates seamlessly with popular FEA platforms such as Ansys, Femap, and Simcenter 3D.
Key features include a modern FEA interface that allows effortless importing of drawings and models, as well as efficient parametric modeling for fast design iterations. SDC Verifier incorporates a Nastran Solver for advanced simulations paired with powerful verification tools. The software’s automatic recognition capabilities help identify structural elements such as joints, welds, beams, and plates instantly. Additionally, it offers comprehensive checks against more than 45 industry standards, including AISC, Eurocode, and DNV.
The post-processing tools enable engineers to analyze critical loads, peak zones, and freebody forces effectively. SDC Verifier also facilitates optimization by refining designs based on factors such as cross-section, weld type, yield stress, and plate thickness. Automatic reporting features make it easy to generate detailed reports in various formats.
SDC Verifier serves a wide range of industries, including Oil & Gas, Civil Engineering, Aerospace, Renewable Energy, Maritime, and more. Engineers can try the software for free or request a demo to experience how it can transform their workflow.
