01 — The Problem

Every job starts with
30–45 minutes you
shouldn't be spending.

Before a structural engineer can open a calculation tool, they're building a loading sheet from scratch. Manually. In Excel. On every single job. That's the problem no competitor has solved.

The missing first step

Every project starts with a loading sheet — dead loads, imposed loads, build-up weights, tributary widths. Engineers calculate this manually from BS EN 1991 tables and firm spreadsheets before they can enter a single number into a design tool. It's 30–45 minutes of work that adds zero engineering value.

30–45 min manual work before design starts

Fragmented toolchain

Loading sheet in Excel. Member design in CADS. Foundation check in another spreadsheet. Narrative in Word. Every tool is a different format, a different file, a different version. The report assembly alone takes an hour.

4+ separate tools per project

Expensive desktop licences

Tekla Tedds at £150+/month. CADS Member Designer dongles. MasterSeries seat licences you pay for whether you use them or not. Tied to one machine. No cloud. No mobile.

£150–£200+/seat/month

Black-box results

Software that spits out a utilisation ratio but won't show the working. Checking engineers can't verify it. Building Control can't follow it. You can't defend it at an enquiry.

No audit trail
02 — Platform Features

The complete pipeline.
Drawings in. Building Control PDF out.

MyStrukt is the only platform that covers the full workflow — from reading your architectural drawings to generating the loading sheet, running every structural check, and producing a Building Control-ready PDF. No other tool does this.

Loading Library

Pre-populated UK domestic build-ups from BS EN 1991-1-1. Select your roof type, floor type, and wall construction — dead loads, imposed loads, and component weights are calculated instantly. No manual spreadsheet. No looking up tables.

BS EN 1991-1-1 · TRADA · SCI

AI Drawing Reader

Upload your architectural PDF or DWG. MyStrukt's AI reads the drawings, extracts beam spans, room labels, storey heights, and structural notes, then pre-populates your member schedule. The engineer verifies — the AI does the reading. What used to take 30 minutes takes 2.

03 — AI Engineering Intelligence

Upload the drawings.
AI does the reading.

No structural platform has ever read architectural drawings and generated a loading sheet automatically. MyStrukt does. Upload the PDF, verify what the AI found, and your member schedule is pre-populated in minutes — not hours.

  • Reads architectural PDFs and DWG files — extracts beam spans, room labels, storey heights, structural notes, and floor levels.
  • Pre-populates the loading sheet — matches extracted build-up types to standard UK dead and imposed load values from BS EN 1991-1-1.
  • Calculates UDLs for every member from tributary widths and loading — dead and imposed loads fed directly into the calculators. No manual re-entry.
  • Writes structured engineering notes, generates specification clauses, and flags regulatory issues — tree proximity, foundation depths, fire compartmentation.
  • The AI always suggests — the engineer always confirms. All structural calculations are deterministic and auditable. The AI never does the maths.

The AI suggests — the engineer confirms. All dimensions and loading assumptions must be verified before calculations proceed. The engineer of record is responsible for all design inputs.
04 — How It Works

The complete workflow.
Nothing missing.

MyStrukt covers the entire process — from the moment you receive the drawings to the moment you submit to Building Control. Every step that used to happen outside a tool now happens inside one.

Upload Architectural Drawings
Upload the architectural PDF or DWG. MyStrukt's AI reads the drawings and identifies beam positions, spans, room labels, storey heights, and structural notes. The drawings stay inside the platform — visible alongside your calculations.

Build Your Loading Sheet
Select your build-up types from the loading library — pitched tiled roof, first floor residential, external cavity wall. Dead loads, imposed loads, and component weights are calculated instantly from BS EN 1991-1-1. What used to be a 30-minute spreadsheet is a 2-minute confirmation.

Define Members & Auto-Calculate UDLs
Confirm the member schedule — spans, tributary widths, what each member supports. MyStrukt calculates the UDL for every beam automatically: tributary width × kN/m² = kN/m, factored for EC3 or BS 5950 load combinations. No spreadsheet. No manual arithmetic. Every member pre-loaded ready to design.

Design & Optimise Members
All checks — bending, shear, LTB, deflection, bearing — run against pre-populated loads. Every result shows the governing equation, clause reference, input values, and working. The AI flags marginal results and recommends alternatives. Foundation and padstone design links directly to beam reactions.

05 — Comparison

Nobody else starts
from the drawings.
Nobody else has the loading library.

Every competitor assumes the loading sheet already exists when the engineer opens the tool. MyStrukt is the first platform to eliminate that 30–45 minute step — and still beat competitors on price.

06 — Early Access

Currently in private beta.
Join the waitlist.

MyStrukt is live and in use — but we're being deliberate about onboarding. We're working directly with a small group of UK structural engineering practices to validate every module against real Building Control submissions before opening more widely.

Beta access — steel & timber modules
Steel beam, timber joist, foundation, and lintel modules are live and in active use by beta engineers.
In development — portal frames & connections
Portal frame and moment connection modules are in active development. Beta testers get first access.
General release — later 2026
Full public launch planned once the beta programme is complete and all modules are validated against reference calculations.
