About this software subscription: This Virtuoso Subscription includes a 12-month practitioner license of this software, that comes with Keys (credits) to unlock training and services.

Powerful nonlinear analysis for precise evaluation of electric and telecommunication conductors

For utilities, telecommunication providers, and consultants who need precise and accurate conductor sag and tension calculations and installation charts, SPIDAsilk is an affordable, easy-to-use platform that features a modern user-friendly interface and detailed reporting.

Detailed sag and tension calculations

Quickly generate results based on code-specified or custom weather cases at initial, final with creep, or without creep scenarios. All SPIDAsilk calculations use precise numerical algorithms to model the catenary geometry of the conductor along the entire span. Conveniently access formatted, easy-to-read stringing reports and sag-tension tables right from the toolbar.

Communication bundles and strand-mount equipment

Easy-to-use bundling for quick definition of communication bundles and overlashing. Users can set a constraint for the complete bundle or explicitly set the initial messenger tension. Modeling multiple objects such as 5G antennas or marker balls and placing them anywhere along the span, precisely calculating the impact on sag and tension.

Calculate tensions that meet all design sag and tension constraint limits

SPIDAsilk comes preloaded with weather cases to support standard electric and telecommunication design needs in a single application, eliminating the needs for multiple applications. Users can also customize weather loads and set constraints and limits on both sag and tension to meet any unique design needs. SPIDAsilk can be used to quickly model everything from long, inclined transmission spans, to evaluating the impacts of over lashing a communication bundle, all while assuring any limits on sag and tensions are met.

Modern, User-Friendly Interface

SPIDAsilk’s user interface provides the same ease of use that SPIDA is known for. SPIDAsilk was designed for users to calculate sag and tension efficiently and accurately in real-time, frustration free.

Detailed Sag and Tension Reporting

SPIDAsilk has made it easy to evaluate single span and ruling spans while creating precise stringing tension charts. View wire reports based on code-specified or custom weather cases at initial, final without creep, and final with creep scenarios.

Stringing Charts and Wire Reports

Excel-based reports save time by eliminating manual calculations, use of .txt files and antiquated reporting.

Linear and Nonlinear Tension Evaluations

SPIDAsilk supports both linear (elastic) and nonlinear (stress-strain) analysis of a conductor span. Seamlessly import WIR files to populate conductor data in your SPIDA client file.

Communication Bundles

SPIDAsilk incorporates the same, easy-to-use bundling tool that is shared with SPIDAcalc for quick definition of communication bundles and over lashing. Users can set a constraint for the complete bundle or explicitly set the initial messenger tension.

Strand-Mounted Equipment Modeling

Model the impact of strand-mounted devices such as marker balls and 5G antennas. Multiple objects can be placed along the span and SPIDAsilk will precisely model the impact of these attachments on both sag and tension of the wire.

Set Limiting Sag Conditions

Set multiple constraints based on Sag Limits, Tension Limits, or percent of Rated Tensile Strength at Initial, Final Tension without Creep, or Final Tension with Creep.

Identify Sag Measurements Along the Span

Quickly model and measure sag along the span. Model elevation changes, the impact of strand-mounted equipment, and long-span construction.

SPIDAcalc Integration

SPIDAsilk and SPIDAcalc both utilize “client files” for managing your library of conductors and bundles. SPIDAsilk includes the SPIDA Client Editor for creating and editing your conductor libraries, providing a common mechanism to centrally manage your libraries of wires and wire states. Additionally, export any span from a SPIDAcalc design to SPIDAsilk for in-depth analysis and reporting.
