Who we are

S-AlgoL — Structural Algorithm and Logic that work — makes design software for structural engineers. It is a Canadian federal corporation, founded in 2017 and based in Toronto.

The software is written by its founder, M. Alauddin Biswas, PhD — a structural engineer specialising in structural dynamics, with more than 25 years of consulting practice in Canada, Australia and abroad, and a former university teacher at the Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET). He still practises as a consultant, and the tools are built for the problems that come up in that work every week.

How we build

  • Show the working. Results come with calculation sheets an engineer can follow line by line.
  • Check against the book. Design modules are compared with published worked examples before release, and the sources are recorded.
  • Say what the software cannot do. Assumptions and limits are stated, not hidden.
  • Fair, simple licensing. One annual licence per computer, priced for the individual engineer, with a free 30-day trial of everything.
