The full workflow, start to finish

From an architect's PDF to a complete load takedown with 3D visualisation and detailed results. No software to install.

01

Load PDFs

Import single or multi-page architect plans directly in the browser.

02

Set up levels

Arrange pages, set scale from a known dimension, and assign each plan to a building level with floor-to-floor heights.

03

Align plans

Pin plans to a shared basepoint so levels stack correctly.

04

Model structure

Trace walls, floors, columns, beams, and load zones with snapping. Use AI wall detection to auto-find walls from PDFs.

05

Review in 3D

Visualise the full building in the interactive 3D viewer. Check load paths and element connections across levels.

06

Live results

Tributary areas calculated automatically. View detailed wall cross-sections, load diagrams, and per-element breakdowns.

07

Annotate

Add markup, dimensions, and notes directly on the plan using the built-in drawing tools.

08

Export PDF

Download a complete PDF calculation pack with load diagrams, results tables, and annotated plans.

Try the example project

Open the app and load the built-in example — a two-storey building with tributary areas already defined. Explore the 3D view, inspect detailed wall results and load diagrams at each level, then clear it and import your own PDF.
