SDC Verifier
SDC Verifier is a powerful post-processor program with an advanced calculation core for checking structures according to different standards and report generation. The goal is to automate all possible routine work and speed up a verification of the engineering projects significantly.
SDC implements fatigue check according to following standards: Eurocode3, FEM 1.001 and DIN15018 based on Smith Correction and Palmgren-Miner S-N curves methods. Plates can be checked against buckling according to ABS 2004/2014 and DNV 1995/RP-C201 2010 rules. SDC Verifier implements the following standards for checking large (offshore) lattice structures: AISC/ANSI 360-10, API RP-2A, ISO 19902, Norsok N004 and Eurocode3. With the built-in report designer, it is possible to completely control structure of the report and easily preview and modify it. SDC also comes with a Presentation Designer which generates PowerPoint Presentation directly from SDC Verifier.
New Release
[17 Apr 2026]
SDC Verifier 2026 R1 delivers expanded offshore and marine standard compliance, stronger buckling capabilities, and major workflow improvements for FEA engineers.
Key Updates in SDC Verifier 2026 R1
Compatibility
- Now compatible with Ansys 2026 R1, Simcenter 3D 2512, and Femap 2512.
Plate & Buckling Enhancements
- Introduced the Edge Stress Method in plate buckling checks, enabling more accurate stability assessment based on actual FEM edge stress distributions.
- Enhanced the Effective Plate Width tool to include girders, enabling comprehensive stiffener–girder interaction in stability checks.
- Improved Panel Finder recognition: predefined girders are now automatically identified as girders (instead of stiffeners) with dedicated parameters, enabling stiffener/girder buckling checks according to DNV RP-C201 (2023).
Modeling
- Mesh to Geometry Tool allows to create plate geometry from selected 1D/2D mesh elements.
Reporting
- Added support for custom legends in reports, allowing two independent legend ranges within a single plot for greater visualization flexibility.
