Most modern structural engineering software, such as Tekla Structural Designer and CADS Steel Simple Connection Designer , incorporates the SCI P358 design checks directly into their modules. This allows engineers to rapidly verify that a connection "passes" all the required Eurocode limit state checks, including shear resistance, bearing, and tying capacity.

The primary purpose of P358 is to provide structural engineers with standardized design procedures and guidance for in steel-framed buildings. In structural terms, a "simple" connection is one that is assumed to transmit only vertical shear forces and allows for some rotation, effectively acting as a pinned joint. Key Design Recommendations
