FRILO, ALLPLAN and SCIA are joining forces to strengthen their delivery capabilities, drive innovation and offer powerful end-to-end design to build workflows, with a strong emphasis on structural engineering. A new and combined go to market approach will accelerate the path to data-driven multi-material design and prefabrication, providing significant productivity benefits for customers. All three companies are part of the Nemetschek Group.
FRILO Software GmbH has successfully delivered version 2024-1. With the update, the provider of innovative solutions for structural calculations and structural design is bringing a new program onto the market that allows the analysis of timber beams reinforced with timber or steel. In addition, two new PLUS programs for steel construction were developed: SWA+ and QS+. The integration of the Schöck Tronsole® in the B7+ also makes it possible to measure the impact sound insulation on stairs according to the approval of the member manufacturer.
FRILO has been offering powerful and user-friendly software solutions for structural engineers for over 40 years and has become a leading provider in this field on the German market. Get to know our software for structural analysis and design. Let us take on a supporting role in your everyday work.
October 27, 1978 is considered the birth of FRILO Software GmbH. Not too many software companies can look back on 45 successful years. How the two founders succeeded in developing FRILO from a start-up into a successful, medium-sized company is the subject of an interview with co-founder Jens Friedrich. Together with the current Managing Director Markus Gallenberger, he looks back on the past years and provides insights into how it all began 45 years ago.
Have you just set up your own business as a structural engineer and are looking for the right structural analysis and design software? Perhaps you are already working with a software, but you are dissatisfied and are therefore thinking about switching to a more powerful tool for structural analysis and design? Whatever situation you find yourself in: We give you 7 good reasons why switching to FRILO software is exactly the right step for you.
In the Swabian town of Metzingen, a sustainable and ecological lighthouse project in residential construction has been developed: With Casa Legno, one of the first apartment buildings in Germany was built in solid timber. The successful realisation of the construction project mainly relied on the patented technology of holzius GmbH from South Tyrol and the responsible structural engineers from the engineering office IBS Bau-Statik PartG, who provide insights into the constructive and structural challenges of their project work.
We stand out for our diverse, modern solutions, all of which are developed and tested in Germany by experienced and qualified civil engineers. Genuine know-how, a deep understanding of customers and short innovation cycles lead to meeting the needs of the market with practicable solutions. Our component-oriented calculation approach significantly reduces the modelling effort and enables particularly simple and precise verification.
A comprehensive portfolio that meets your construction tasks with accurate answers.
An input-friendly operation that characterises itself as particularly intuitive and clear.
A competent support that is ready to help you in word and deed.
A reliable and standard-compliant edition that shines through diligence.
Our structural analysis program for the calculation of continuous beams made of steel, concrete or timber.
Our structural analysis program for the determination of the load transfer of an entire typical building in solid construction.
Our structural analysis program for the calculation of bar-type structures as planar or spatial systems.

Because the raw material is indispensable in the construction industry, our steel portfolio provides structural engineers with 13 intelligent structural analysis programs and add ons for the building material. Thus, among other things, verifications for steel columns, steel beams, crane runways as well as portal frames and steel frames can be performed with determination of the decisive combinations of internal forces. The portfolio is complemented by 17 solutions that can be used for special detailed verifications.
With the 4 solutions, which are to be found in the thematic area of masonry, components made of artificial, unreinforced masonry with rectangular cross-sections can be verified. Both the simplified and the exact method can be used. The structural safety of individual walls, multi-storey walls, earth pressure-loaded basement walls and masonry piers can be verified. Special toolboxes round off the portfolio.
Our reinforced concrete product range comes up with 20 unique programs and add ons that can be used to design various reinforced concrete components quickly and reliably. Depending on the task, the decisive internal forces for the design are determined in advance, taking into account the valid superposition rules. All solutions perform a complete reinforced concrete design. Reinforcement drawings supplement the design. Special toolboxes round off the portfolio.
our current foundation engineering portfolio includes 18 programs and add ons that can be used, among other things, to perform ground failure, slope failure and foundation verifications. Calculations of elastically supported beams, basement walls, angular retaining walls and pile foundations can be performed as well as settlement and earth pressure calculations. In addition, there are five programs that allow the design of different types of foundations. The portfolio is completed by the manifold program world of DC software: 40 solutions for foundation engineering and 34 solutions for soil mechanics.
Our current timber & roof portfolio includes 16 timber construction programs and add ons that provide you with a wealth of calculation and verification methods for various types of timber beams, timber columns as well as panelled timber walls. In addition, we offer a number of solutions that perform special detailed verifications. The product range is supplemented by 6 roof programs for the calculation and design of house roofs with traditional constructions made of timber. Special toolboxes round off the portfolio.

The FRILO Reinforced Timber Beam HTV+ program helps you to economically calculate and dimension timber beams that need to be laterally reinforced to ensure their preservation.
FRILO Software GmbH has successfully delivered version 2024-1. With the new version of the software, FRILO is bringing numerous new and further developments to the market.
A lot has changed at FRILO in recent years. Be it the software innovations, such as the FRILO BIM Connector, or the wide range of webinars. You can see that the company is moving into the right direction.
FRILO offers really excellent and perhaps unique options for creating structural analysis and design, which save me an enormous amount of time during my work.
FRILO has been a reliable companion since I started my career. A lot has changed in these 25 years. What has remained the same, however, is the simple and clear handling of the various FRILO structural design modules.
We have known and valued FRILO as a reliable software partner for over 20 years. In particular, the intuitive program operation and the newly designed interfaces of the PLUS programs facilitate our daily work. We are looking forward to the next developments from FRILO.
The Innovation Lab has shown us that FRILO is continuously developing and responding to customer needs in the best possible way.
