SkyCiv Foundation Design is a cloud-based structural engineering software module that enables fast and accurate design of concrete foundations, including footings, piles, and combined footings. Integrated with SkyCiv Structural 3D, it allows users to import forces directly from 3D model analysis and customize soil layers, column locations, foundation types, and reinforcement for optimal design efficiency. Engineers can communicate results through detailed hand calculations with code references, exportable as PDFs for project deliverables or further investigation. The software supports design standards such as ACI 318, AS 3600, and Eurocode, and is accessible from any browser with no installations required.
