Increase your system integrity, ensure reliable service, reduce safety concerns, and optimize overhead financial investments
SPIDAcalc makes it straightforward to collect, model, and optimize overhead assets, giving organizations transparency, control, and flexibility over collection, material specification, and analysis methods. SPIDAcalc is the ideal tool for electric utilities, telecommunication and broadband providers, engineering and construction contractors, consulting firms, and other industry professionals.
Intuitive modeling and design
Streamline your modeling and design process with a superior user interface featuring intuitive drag-and-drop functionality, configurable workspaces, and interactive 2D and 3D views. Quickly create designs by using preconfigured standards and leverage lead connectivity to model an entire pole line with ease.
Powerful analysis
Backed by a powerful finite element analysis engine, including advanced geometric nonlinear analysis methods, SPIDAcalc provides trusted results to reduce risk across your system. With interactive analysis results, quickly visualize stress, shear, moment, and deflection along the pole along with an innovative patent pending 360-degree radar chart.
Automated Clearance Evaluations
Leverage Design Layers and the Design Comparison tool to evaluate the impact of changes to your designs and automatically generate make-ready statements to speed up the preparations of deliverables. Utilize Profile View to evaluate above ground and between clearances anywhere along the span.
Analysis
- Backed by a powerful finite element analysis engine, SPIDAcalc offers both traditional linear analysis and advanced geometric non-linear analysis
- Simulate pole damage and decay by modeling the results of your intrusive inspections
- Scalable cloud-based analysis service to handle the analysis of one pole or 10,000 poles in a matter of minutes
- Trusted calculations verified by a third party
Connectivity
- Utilize Map View to build out a connected system of poles simultaneously, greatly reducing the time required to model
- Bulk-move options allow you to easily reposition for your relocated projects
- String a new communication bundle or model the effects of over lashing
- Evaluate reconductor jobs by replacing your primary wires across and entire pole line with the click of a button
Ease of Use
- Intuitive drag-and-drop functionality
- Quickly create pole designs by using standard or user-defined assemblies
- Configurable workspaces, featuring interactive 2D and 3D views, that can be customized to fit your project’s needs
- Interactive Analysis Results make it easy to interpret results and streamline your reporting needs
- Create a wide array of communication bundles within a project, or pre-built into a client library
Profile View
- Evaluate above ground and between clearances along the span in Profile View
- Terrain Modeling
- Utilize nonlinear wire tension calculations to model conductor state change at various weather conditions, including conductor creep
- Generate span profile reports across your entire project
Advisor
- Troubleshoot non-compliant poles by iterating through routines to determine the ideal replacement
- Optimize pole class and anchor leads based on your specific design needs
- Streamline routines and eliminate the need to guess and check
