Wall Bracing EC

Structural analysis of wall bracings according to Eurocode 3

Structural analysis of wall bracings

Wall bracing EC is the powerful software for the structural analysis of wall bracing!
Regardless of whether it is


  • a standard cross bracing

  • a K-bracing


or a


  • double or multi-story bracing


are involved.

Wall Bracing EC calculates wall bracings completely - two-story bracings even with wind loads on the compression member, with dimensioning of compression members, with dimensioning of diagonals, with dimensioning of connection details such as bolted connections of diagonals to gusset plates.

Wall Bracing EC is standard-compliant.

Calculations and dimensioning are performed according to the current EuroCode standard by default, but can also be performed according to DIN 18800 if required.

Wall Bracings EC is a product of the STAHL 2000 series and is available both as a stand-alone program and as part of the Program Packages Hall and Static Analysis.

Calculation and dimensioning of wall bracings,

simple, fast and reliable!

Thanks to STAHL 2000's proven tab system, the calculation and dimensioning of the wall bracings is completed in a minimum of time.

Variation diversity

Wall bracing offers you many possible variations. Basically, you can calculate 4 types of wall bracing:


  • Standard cross bracing

  • K-bracing

  • Double cross bracing

  • Multi-story bracing


If required, the horizontal load on the eaves beam can be automatically imported from a previous roof bracing calculation.
For double cross bracing, the compression member can also be designed as a wall beam with wind load as an option.

Direct dimensioning options for components - simple, fast and standard-compliant

With Wall Bracing EC, you can dimension all affected components directly.
This saves a lot of time and effort and reduces the potential for errors!

The diagonal braces can be used either as


  • angle profiles bolted to a gusset plate

  • a round bar welded to a flat bar, or

  • as a threaded rod.


The compression bars are supplied by Wandverband EC either as


  • I-shaped rolled or

  • sheet metal profiles or

  • as round tubes.

Clear results and versatile output

The standard output system of STAHL 2000 is used to output the results.
You can preview the output on the screen, display graphics (system, influence lines) and output to a printer, PDF or Word document.

PTC Mathcad. An ideal tool.


With Mathcad you can easily create a calculation document with text, images and formulas. Similar to a text editor, but the formulas are automatically mathematically exact and the formula content is not just text, but variable values.

In our opinion, Mathcad is one of the most underrated programs and should not be missing in any engineering office!
