Industry-first partnership delivers engineers better access to standards

May 9, 2023

Statements

Standards Australia and Australian engineering and structural design software, ClearCalcs, are partnering to make it easier for engineers to better access, understand and use relevant engineering standards in real-time.

Australian Standards, which are primary references in the National Construction Code, will be integrated into the ClearCalcs platform, with the aim of making it easier for engineers to ensure they are complying with the industry’s relevant codes while performing key calculations.

In addition to promoting stronger adoption of standards, the partnership aims to better support industry to confidently explore new ideas, resulting in more innovative and creative structures.

Daniel Chidgey, Standards Australia’s Head of Commercial Partnerships, says: “We are delighted to partner with ClearCalcs to integrate trusted standards information into their innovative software platform, helping engineers make quality decisions with confidence".

“Engineers typically make hundreds of calculations in engineering projects, often using spreadsheets, clunky platforms, and manual calculations. Mistakes when making calculations can lead to extended project timeframes and costly reworks, so they must be done right from the start. Having Standards Australia’s content embedded into ClearCalcs’ intuitive engineering platform has great potential to improve their efficiency and accuracy.”

Chris Borzillo, co-founder of ClearCalcs said, “Integrating Standard Australia’s guidelines into our platform has been a goal of ours since day one. Our calculators are designed to help engineers make confident decisions faster, and we know that they refer to Australian Standards constantly through this process, which makes marrying the two an absolute no-brainer. With Australian Standards now a core part of our tools, engineers will be able to quickly calculate their specific and comprehensive engineering needs, reducing the time it takes for projects to move from concept to reality".

“Together, we are transforming how the engineering industry operates through easy to use, innovation-led distribution of information.”

Launched in 2017 by Chris Borzillo and Steven Robinson, ClearCalcs is a fast-growing Australian startup with an established presence locally and in the US, Canada, Europe, and New Zealand. The standards rollout has been in beta testing since January 2023.
