Engineering Suite
Planning certainty from the very first figure
A continuous toolkit for everyone who plans, operates and secures infrastructure: from hydrology through layout and costs to structural design – traceable, reproducible and offline-capable.
Updated:

The planning chain
From rainfall to structure
JUMBO BLOCK Hydro
Retention volume to DWA-A 117 and infiltration to DWA-A 138-1, with KOSTRA-DWD-2020 data and location search.
JUMBO BLOCK Plan
Turns the requirement into a module layout and shows how the installation fits beneath the site.
JUMBO BLOCK Design
3D model of the installation with dimensions, section and exploded views; export as IFC, DXF and STEP AP242.
JUMBO BLOCK Budget
Quantities, materials and initial cost estimate – transparent figures for committee decisions.
JUMBO BLOCK Static
Structural verification of the installation, even for several hundred modules. Calculation as an engineering service on request.
JUMBO BLOCK Temp
Temperature and heat balance of the underground infrastructure. Calculation as an engineering service on request.
One project file (project.dbm) runs through all tools. Each tool adds only its own data and secures the file with a checksum, keeping the planning traceable from start to finish.
For whom
One toolkit for everyone involved
Planners
Continuous tools instead of media breaks between hydrology, structure and costs – reproducible calculations across the full planning depth.
Municipalities
Reliable bases for funding applications, heavy-rain and climate-adaptation concepts – with a view to decades rather than years.
Industry
Forward-looking planning of retention, water reserves and site protection – documented, verifiable and standardised.
KRITIS operators
Tools for traceable evidence and digital resilience – from encrypted data storage to incident reporting.
For emergencies
KRITIS tools that work without a network
When systems fail or are compromised, a crisis team still has to be able to work. The KRITIS tools run offline in the browser – even from a USB stick – and need no installation.
Logbook
Encrypted situation log with staff functions S1–S6 and hash chain
Report
Reporting deadlines under NIS-2, KRITIS-DachG, CRA and GDPR
Cert
Own certificate authority and TLS certificates for emergencies
Crypt
Encrypt and sign files and texts
Check
Checksums for files and folders
Inventory
Device and network register with recovery order
Vault
Offline password vault
Rescue
Bootable rescue stick
JUMBO BLOCK Office
Office tools for project and site
Project control with Gantt chart, GAEB bills of quantities, spreadsheets, documents, PDF tools, maintenance log and more – also local and offline.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is the JUMBO BLOCK Engineering Suite?
A browser-based collection of engineering tools at jumboblock.org: hydrology, layout planning, 3D design, cost estimation, structural and temperature analysis, plus office and KRITIS tools. All tools run locally in the browser, work offline and are bilingual.
What does the Engineering Suite cost?
Hydro, Plan, Design and Budget as well as the office and KRITIS tools are free to use. Structural and temperature calculations are prepared on request from your project file.
Is my project data uploaded?
No. The tools process all data locally in the browser. Projects are saved as a file (project.dbm) on your computer and protected against unnoticed changes by a checksum.
