Thorough checks before independent review
Automated
structural drawing review.
All structural drawings — in one platform. The Kalvelio system automatically checks engineering solutions and drawing quality, then marks problem areas directly on the drawing with the reason and a reference to the unmet standard or regulation clause.

01 / Design library
Every structural drawing.
One library.
See drawings and revisions in a clear structure, find the document you need quickly and follow the review history. IFC models provide geometry for checks; structural calculations provide required reinforcement and material grades.

PDF
Search and revisions
Every drawing is easy to find.
Kalvelio recognises the drawing number, title, tags and revision, so the right drawing is easy to find and open.
-
IFC
Model geometry
The drawing is compared with the model.
IFC geometry is linked to drawing references so reinforcement layout and Eurocode requirements can be checked.
-
CALC
Structural calculations
Check whether the design matches the calculations.
Required reinforcement and material grades are compared with what is shown in the drawing and model.
02 / Problem areas on the drawing
Correct the
problem areas.
The marker shows exactly where the drawing needs a correction. Alongside it, you see the check result, the reason and the applicable standard clause.
Needs attention
Insufficient clear bar spacing.
The clear bar spacing is below the minimum determined from the supplied detailing parameters.
- Standard clause
- EN 1992-1-1 · 8.2(2)
- Check condition
- Clear spacing ≥ required minimum
- Drawing location
- 01 / Highlighted bar spacing
Every marker is supported by a specific requirement.
The engineer sees immediately what to correct and why.
03 / Review stages
Quality, solutions,
consistency.
Five review stages — from drawing quality to the effects of adjacent elements. Each shows what was checked, which information is missing and what still needs an engineer’s judgement.
02
Eurocode requirements
Spacing, anchorage, lap, bend and element-detailing checks in EN 1992-1-1.
03
Structural calculations
Material grades and provided versus required reinforcement, connected by position.
04
Embedded-part certificates
Compare lifting anchors, connections and other embedded-part details with manufacturer certificates and technical assessments.
05
Effects of adjacent elements
Element connections, load transfer and overall structural behaviour using the whole-building model.
Remove drawing errors before independent review. Submit checked engineering solutions with a clear review history.
Which project information can I upload?
Upload structural drawings in PDF format, IFC models and structural calculations. The system recognises drawing layouts and data, then uses the models and calculations to check geometry and engineering solutions.
When do I need a model or calculations?
A PDF is enough for drawing-quality analysis. The IFC model is needed for geometry and Eurocode checks, while structural calculations allow required reinforcement and material grades to be compared.
How do I follow checks and drawing revisions?
See drawing revisions, the status of every check and its history. Search helps you find the drawing you need, while results stay linked to its revision.
Does it replace the checking engineer?
Kalvelio assists with repetitive review and makes problem areas easier to find. The engineer remains responsible for the drawing and decisions that require professional judgement.
