Why engineers switch from Structural Toolkit

Load linking built into the core workflow

Reactions propagate automatically through beams, columns, and footings. The full load path is visible and inspectable, not stitched together by hand across separate spreadsheets.

Cloud workspace, any browser

Open Calcs.com on any computer, anywhere. No Windows-only install, no license-monitor program, no local file shuffling between machines.

AS plus NZ, US, and Eurocode

Design to AS 1170, AS 1720, AS 3600, AS 4100, and AS 3700 alongside NZS, IBC, and Eurocode standards in the same project.

Shared team workspace

Project defaults set once, applied across every calculation. Multiple engineers work concurrently in the same project from any browser.

Load linking through the full structure

Structural Toolkit handles individual members well, with a spreadsheet for each. What it does not do is connect them: when a roof load changes, you open the beam sheet, update it, then the column, then the footing. In Calcs.com, every member sits on the same load path by default. Reactions propagate through the connected beams, columns, and footings automatically, with the propagation visible at every step. Engineers trace any value back to its source, which makes reviews faster and the result easier to defend.

Just the simple feature of being able to link loads is a really big time-saver.

AS at the core, with NZ, US, and Eurocode in the same platform

Structural Toolkit is built around Australian Standards and works only inside that scope. Calcs.com covers AS 1170, AS 1720, AS 3600, AS 4100, and AS 3700 alongside NZS 3404, NZS 3603, IBC, ASCE 7, AISC 360, NDS, and Eurocode 2 and 3. Firms working across the Tasman or designing for clients in multiple regions stay in one platform instead of maintaining a second tool at the border.

Built for teams, not single-machine installs

Structural Toolkit is a Windows desktop application with a per-seat cloud license tied to the user. Calcs.com is built for how engineering firms actually work: project defaults set once and inherited across the team, shared workspaces where principals review junior engineers' work directly, and multiple engineers working concurrently in the same project from any browser. No license-monitor utility, no machine transfers, no waiting for a colleague to close the file.

Frequently asked questions

Can I import my existing Structural Toolkit calculations?
Structural Toolkit uses a proprietary spreadsheet format that does not export to anything Calcs.com can import. The practical path is to rebuild your standard templates in Calcs.com. Most engineers report this takes a day or two for their core set of calculations, and the result is a linked workflow rather than a folder of separate sheets.
Does Calcs.com cover the same Australian Standards as Structural Toolkit?
Calcs.com covers AS 1170 (loading), AS 1720 (timber), AS 3600 (concrete), AS 4100 (steel), AS 3700 (masonry), and the core Australian standards Structural Toolkit addresses. It also covers NZS, IBC, ASCE 7, AISC 360, NDS, and Eurocode 2 and 3 in the same platform. If you rely on a specific calculator, contact us before switching and we can confirm coverage.
What does Calcs.com cost compared to Structural Toolkit?
Structural Toolkit is priced per seat: AUD $950/year Standard or $1,450/year Professional (ex GST), with each seat tied to one active user. Calcs.com Pro is USD $119/month (or $1,190/year) on a concurrent-access model, meaning multiple engineers work simultaneously under one subscription. For a firm of three or more engineers, Calcs.com typically costs less per active engineer than Structural Toolkit's per-seat pricing. Start a 14-day free trial to verify coverage before committing.
Is Calcs.com available offline like Structural Toolkit?
Calcs.com is a cloud platform and requires an internet connection. The trade-off is that calculations are accessible from any device, your team collaborates in real time, and there is no Windows-only install or license-monitor utility to manage.
Is Calcs.com the same as ClearCalcs?
Yes. We rebranded to Calcs.com in 2025. Same product, same team, new name.
