CAD-Steel.co.uk - Free Structural Steel CAD Downloads

Welcome to www.cad-steel.co.uk - your premier CAD data resource, providing the only complete library of United Kingdom steel sections available on the web today! We rank #1 on Google for a reason!

Our steel sections are derived from publications such as ”Steelwork Design Guide to BS5950-1:2000” (also known as “The Blue Book”, and Eurocode-aligned publication SCI P363 “Steel Building Design: Design Data”.  With an impressive 5,000 regular visitors and 25,000 monthly page views, cad-steel.co.uk stands as an invaluable asset, trusted by construction industry professionals across the United Kingdom.

Structural Calculators for Eurocode 3 & Eurocode 0 Design
Beyond our CAD blocks, cad-steel.co.uk offers a free suite of structural calculators covering the most common early-stage design checks for structural steel: combining actions to BS EN 1990, sizing beams and columns, classifying sections, and checking beam, column, base plate, bolted, and welded connections — all to BS EN 1993 (Eurocode 3) and their UK National Annexes. Built for engineers and designers who want a fast, reliable second opinion during preliminary design, several tools carry values straight through to the next step in your workflow, so you're not re-entering the same numbers twice.

We recognised the need for this resource following many years in the structural & civil engineering industry ourselves. Instant access to CAD data for all the “Blue Book” / SCI P363 steel sections is all about improving workflow efficiency. Deliver more for less effort and actually improve quality along the way – a work ethic we value highly ourselves and one certainly shared by most successful companies.

Our comprehensive database encompasses the complete range of steel sections, including Universal Columns, Universal Beams, Universal Bearing Piles, Joists, Parallel Flange Channels, and Structural Ts to BS4: Part 1, Hot Finished Circular Hollow Sections, Square Hollow Sections, Rectangular Hollow Sections to BS 4848: Part 2, Equal Angles, and Unequal Angles to BS EN 10056-1, and more. Whatever your structural section CAD block needs, you can find all 1028 of the "Blue Book" / SCI P363 sections right here, available for immediate download – and the best part is, it's absolutely FREE!

All our CAD blocks were created in the AutoCAD 2000 environment and are free from unnecessary layers, text styles, or anything else. Download the file you need, unzip and simply drag-and-drop into your AutoCAD drawing!
