About

CASA Space Frame 3D

This app enables structural engineers to perform static and dynamic elastic analysis of 3D space-frames. It offers quick and precise modeling with graphical interaction, providing numerical and graphical results for deflections, forces, and mode shapes.

Highlights
  • Linear static analysis
  • Non-linear static analysis (P-Delta)
  • Dynamic analysis (natural modes, footfall)
  • Extensive section and material libraries
  • Graphical interactive results
  • Metric & imperial units
Read full description

Structural / Civil Engineering App for static & dynamic elastic analysis of general 3D space-frames. With CASA SF-3D an engineer can create 3D structural models of space-frames and obtain both the numerical results and graphical representation of the deflections, forces, natural frequencies, and mode shapes. There is an emphasis on quick and precise modelling with graphical interaction. Results are graphically interactive with a sliding readout of numerical results at any point along a member. More information about this App can be found in its integrated help and on our website. The App also contains "Replay Demonstrations" which describe and enact its use. === This App includes the following features: * Linear static analysis. * P-Delta non-linear static analysis. * Natural mode dynamic analysis. * Footfall dynamic analysis. * Sway-cases. * Geometry groups: - Include or exclude geometry from the analysis. - Groups can be combined into supergroups. * Multi-copying for rapid generation of regular geometry. * Rotation and reflection of geometry. * Solid rendering of geometry: - Member cross-sections drawn to scale. - Colour-coded by groups. * Viewpoint memories: - Store and recall for quick navigation. * Members can be oriented to a third node. * Gravity (self-weight) loading. * Factored load-case combinations. * Rubber-band box for large-area selection. === General Technical Features === * Automatic analysis. * Integrated extensive section library: - British, European, American, Canadian, Australian, South African, Japanese, Russian. - See our website for the range of shapes. * Integrated section generator for common shapes: - Open: I/H, channel, zed, angle, tee. - Hollow: Oval, Rectangular. - Solid: Oval, Rectangular. - Calculates: Area, Inertia, Torsional constant, Elastic moduli, mass. * Integrated material library: - Steel, Aluminium, Concrete, Timber, Glass. - User materials can be added. * Member ends can be rigid or pinned. * Loads applied as point, couple, trapezoid. * Multiple load-cases. * Statics results include: - Reactions, deflections, bending moments, shear forces, bending stress. - Points of interest. - Results given all along members. * Dynamic analysis considers self weight plus additional mass-cases. * Dynamic results include:   - Resonant frequencies   - Undamped oscillation mode shapes * Footfall results include: - Response factors. - Critical frequencies. - Both impulse and resonant responses. === General User Interface Features === * Universal App - for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. * Metric & imperial units. * Four simple interactive screens: - Geometry, Loading, Results: for interacting with the model. - Utilities: Supplementary functions (see below). * Easy modelling: - Tap to select; tap to edit. - Move and copy geometry. - Slide nodes along members. - Change member spans. - Split members. - Replicate loading across members. * Graphical drag-and-tap controls: - Rotate, pan, zoom the view with simple gestures. - Drag nodes for positions. - Drag loads for positions and magnitudes. - Drag marker along member to read off results values. - Tap on Points of Interest for important results.  - Select nodes to measure distances, angles, and areas between them. * Numeric entry available: - Double-tap on a datum to enter its numerical value. - Includes a convenient built-in calculator. * Straightforward section library: - Pick from country, shape, and size. - View diagram and properties. - For custom shapes, double-tap on dimensions to edit. - Axes can be rotated by 90 degrees. * Report generation: - Configurable content. - Graphical layout. - On-screen preview. - Export PDF by e-mail. - AirPrint. - CSV export of numerical data. * Supplementary functions: - Document titles. - Choice of unit system (UK/EU Metric, US Imperial). - On-line help. - Load, save, and export models.

RenoPlan helps anyone -- whether home contractors, interior designers, sales reps, architects, DIYers -- to quickly and accurately measure residential homes or office buildings to create floor plans and project estimates. The app can handle just about measuring jobs, like room drawings, doors, windows, kitchen countertops/cabinets, tubs, and showers. RenoPlan makes it easy for your renovation, remodeling and restoration projects. As you create your plan, the app automatically calculates floor, wall areas and perimeters of room areas so as to estimate product usages. This can mean big savings for your projects. It is handy to create estimates and invoices with attached floor plan diagrams and photos, so professionals like contractors can win a job and get client signatures on the spot. And when the job is done, send an invoice to the client to get paid faster. RenoPlan leverages your device's powerful AR (ARKit) and LiDAR capabilities to measure room in seconds, which will be very handy in the accuracy-insensitive scenarios. For professional projects, RenoPlan is integrated with Leica Disto, Bosch, and DeWalt laser meters, capable of measuring room quickly and accurately. With the app, you can also markup and attach site measurements and photos, which can be included in a professional report. Supported laser models: - Leica Disto D1, D2, E7100i - Bosch GLM 50C, 100C, 120C, 150C, 400C, 400CL - DeWALT DW099S, DW0165S, DW0330S - Moasure One (New)

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: RenoPlan at Free against CASA Space Frame 3D's $299.99. RenoPlan also leads on rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). CASA Space Frame 3D's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 62%) and in-app purchases (none vs 6). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

RenoPlan holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RenoPlan has 751 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of CASA Space Frame 3D's written reviews are positive against 62% of RenoPlan's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

CASA Space Frame 3D ships an update every 3 months, RenoPlan fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 23, 2026 and October 24, 2026 respectively.
