Analysis
Three-dimensional finite element. Shell and frame elements in one model, rigid floor diaphragms, notional forces and storey drift.

The analysis is the easy part.
Every package solves the frame. Almost none of them finish the job. Lunia carries a building from model to detailed reinforcement drawings and calculation sheets — arranged, scheduled and referenced to the clause — without leaving the file.
Lunia is structural engineering software that takes a building from 3-D modelling and finite element analysis through design, reinforcement detailing and issued drawings — in one model.
What it does
One structural workflow
Analyse · Design · Detail · Document — across concrete, steel and foundations, without the model being rebuilt at a boundary between tools.
Concrete design
Beams, columns, slabs, walls and staircases, with pad, strip, combined and raft foundations and pile caps.
Learn moreSteel design
Members, base plates, portal frames and connections, checked against a full library of rolled sections.
Learn moreFoundations
Pad, strip and combined footings, rafts on an elastic medium and pile caps — created from the columns already in the model.
Learn moreDetailing & documentation
Reinforcement arranged, laps positioned and bars scheduled, then drawn and written out as DXF with the calculation sheets.
Learn moreAn engineer does not lose a week to the analysis. The week goes between“the model solves” and “the drawings are on the contractor's desk” — arranging bars that fit the web, deciding where a lap is allowed to sit, splitting links at a crank, and typing the calculation up afterwards.
Lunia treats that as the product. Every decision the detailer makes is made against a clause, and the clause is printed beside the number on the sheet — so the person checking your drawing can follow it without asking you what the software did.
That is the difference between a result and a submission. It is also why the sheets go out as they are, rather than being retyped into a document the night before the deadline.
Why switch
Where the steps actually go
The usual route is not one workflow. It is several programs, and the structure is re-entered at every handover.
| The usual route | With Lunia |
|---|---|
| Model the building | Model the building |
| Analyse it | Analyse it |
| Export the results | Design the members |
| Re-enter the model in design software | Detail the reinforcement |
| Redraw the detail in CAD | Schedule the bars |
| Type the calculation up afterwards | Write the calculation sheets |
| Several programs, several files | One model, no re-entry |
Who it is for
Built for
Structural consultants
Design and document a project without rebuilding the model across several programs.
Detailers
Move from designed member to issued reinforcement drawing without redrawing it by hand.
Engineering practices
One workflow across the team, so drawings and calculations leave the office in a consistent form.
Students & academics
See a whole structural workflow end to end, not one isolated step of it. Academic licensing available.
The workflow
Five steps, one model, no re-entry
The reason drawings take so long is that most of these steps live in different programs, and the model gets rebuilt at every boundary.
- 01
Model
Grids, frames, slabs, walls and foundations — or the architect's DXF, imported as drawn.
- 02
Analyse
Shells and frames solved together, with diaphragms, notional forces and drift.
- 03
Design
Concrete, steel and timber members against the code you actually work to.
- 04
Detail
Reinforcement arranged, laps positioned, links zoned and bars scheduled.
- 05
Document
Drawings out to DXF, and calculation sheets with the clause beside every number.
Why Lunia
What makes it different
It finishes the job
Most packages stop when the frame solves. Lunia carries on through detailing to the drawings that actually go out to the contractor.
Built to be checked
Every value on a calculation sheet carries the clause it came from, so a reviewer can follow the work without asking you what the software did.
One model, no re-entry
The structure is never rebuilt at a boundary between programs, because there is no boundary to cross. Nothing is typed in twice, so nothing can disagree.
Written for practice
Perpetual, subscription, floating and academic licensing, and design to the codes engineers actually build to — wherever they practise.
