Advanced wood shear wall design. Optimize your calculations with precision using our latest 3D structural engine.

Export geometry directly from Revit 2025 and 2026. Import your models with a single click to instantly define which walls belong to your lateral wind-resisting system.

Automatically calculate wind pressures using both Envelope and Directional methods. Distribute loads flexibly across truss roofs, employing tributary area and stiffness criteria for consecutive walls.

Design perforated and full segmented shear walls meeting every requirement of NDS 2024 and SDPWS 2021. Handle dead and snow loads efficiently while ensuring full code compliance.

Calculate headers for wall voids and specific beams across your models, precisely determining Jack Studs required per NDS norms. A complete wood framing solution.

Export beautifully formatted, detailed PDF reports. Showcase your full shear wall calculations, diagrams, and dedicated reports for Lumber, LVL, or Glulam beam designs.

Built by structural engineers, for structural engineers. We faced the identical tedious challenges of wood-framed shear wall design, which is why we created the Wood Shear Wall Designer to automate the process.
Please note: The current version of Wood Shear Wall Designer optimizes designs for single-story structures. Our team is actively developing the robust analytical engine required for complex multi-story load paths, which will be released in an upcoming free update.
