Scaffcalc Engineering Services

When the guidelines stop, our engineers step in.

Some jobs require more than standard type-approvals can cover. The law requires a custom calculation: and someone who knows scaffolding has to do it. You already have your project in Scaffcalc. We take it from there, model it in professional FEM software, and send back a dimensioning document your crew can build from.

The Process

Your structural team. Already inside Scaffcalc.

Watch: FEM Developer Anna Stigenberg explains how we turn your complex project into a buildable, documented structure (1:45).

01

Share Your Project

Send us your Scaffcalc 3D project along with site conditions: wind zone, ground type, load class. We start from your model: no re-drawing, no data entry.

02

We Model and Calculate

Our team rebuilds the structure in professional FEM software and applies wind loads, snow loads, and ground reactions specific to your project. Every connection, every anchor level.

03

You Get the Dimensioning Document

You receive a full structural dimensioning document: force diagrams for every anchor point, capacity checks for every member, and action notes for your crew: what to double, where counterweights go, what base plate size to use. Ready to hand to the client or inspector.

What We Calculate

Built for the jobs that need a real calculation.

If it's outside standard territory, this is where it lands.

Temporary Weather Protection Roofs

Wind, snow, and uplift analysis on temporary roof structures in combination with the supporting scaffold.

Free-Standing Scaffolds

Ground pressure and stability when facade anchoring is not an option. Counterweight sizing included.

Heavy-Duty Loading Bays

Load class verification for scaffolding carrying machinery, materials, or sustained heavy impact.

Bridging and Cantilevers

Lattice beams and suspended sections calculated to safety tolerances, with specific connection and bracing instructions.

Don't take our word for it. Look at the math.

These are real dimensioning documents from projects we've completed. You'll see exactly what you get: the calculation model, force values at every anchor point, and action notes for the crew. Enter your email and we'll send the bundle straight to your inbox.

The Crew

Structural engineers. Dedicated to scaffolding.

We're not former scaffolders, and we don't pretend to be. We're structural engineers who work on one thing: making sure complex scaffolding is safe to build. We work through each project directly with the contractor. Your ideas about how to build stay in where they hold up. We tell you when something needs to change, and exactly what. 329 calculations completed for contractors across Europe. The results speak for themselves.

"Honestly, I don't know what we would have done without your help!"

: Patrik Mortsen, Project Manager at Facit Byggställningar

Your project needs a real calculation. Let's talk.

Send us your Scaffcalc project and site conditions. We'll model it, calculate it, and send back a dimensioning document your crew can build from.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Traditional CAD software like AutoCAD or Revit is built for general construction. It requires months of training, expensive licenses, and produces no scaffolding-specific output. Scaffcalc is purpose-built for scaffolding professionals. Design your scaffold in 3D with drag-and-drop, generate precise material lists with one click, and run structural load calculations directly from your model. The result isn't just faster, it's safer. Every structure can be verified before anything goes up. Share your project as an interactive 3D link that clients and crew can open on phone, tablet, or desktop. No installation needed.
