SolverBlaze Finite Element Library (SDK)
SolverBlaze Finite Element Library (SDK) is a leading structural and finite element analysis Application Programming Interface (API). It is based on the time-tested finite element solver engine in Real3D, which is being used by hundreds of civil and structural engineering offices in the United States and around the world. You can use this powerful and easy-to-use API to develop your custom software royalty-free. SolverBlaze is available in both 64-bit and 32-bit, with easy-to-use C++ and .NET interfaces (binary and source code).
SolverBlaze is used in Simpson Strong-Tie Anchor Designer(TM) Software.

What our clients are saying:
Our firm produces designs of bridges, tunnels and other structures. We do use specialized software particularly developed abroad. Your software SolverBlaze proved to be quite convenient for this purpose. Using your software so far, we see it is quite adequate and professionally made. Your libraries contain all functions we need for the purpose mentioned above. We tested them using your software Real3D as well as other software that can perform static calculations. The results were quite good that is why now we use your SDK for our new development.
