SOFiSTiK Rhino Interface

The SOFiSTiK Rhino Interface seamlessly connects structural analysis with Rhino’s easy yet powerful NURBS-based modelling environment, allowing engineers to use Rhino as a preprocessor to create analytical models directly within this intuitive platform. With the SOFiSTiK Rhino Interface, it is possible to create structural elements, support conditions, loads, and much more, while its integrated visual scripting tools make it easy to parametrize and adapt models to any design change.

Take advantage of Rhino’s extensive functionality, including support for over 30 file formats, advanced modelling and visualization tools, and broad industry integrations, while enjoying an affordable and capable solution for structural modelling and analysis.

Grasshopper Toolbox

Bring full parametric control to any project and any model.

Harness the Computer-Aided Bridge Design workflow for full model adjustability.

Automatically generate unrolled elevation views and section drawings.

Visualize, parametrize, and refine your design based on calculated results.

Single Source of Truth — One Model, Multiple Outputs

With the SOFiSTiK Rhino Interface, your Grasshopper definition becomes the single source of truth for your entire bridge project. From one parametric model, derive both the analytical model for structural analysis in SOFiSTiK and the 3D volumetric model for BIM platforms like Tekla Structures or Autodesk Revit. Change a parameter once — road alignment, cross-section geometry, pier placement — and both the analysis and the BIM model update instantly. No duplicate data, no manual synchronization, no risk of inconsistencies between disciplines.
