Structural/Civil Engineering App for single-span beams.
Caters for beams with various end supports and with arbitrary loadings composed of any mix of point loads, moments, and distributed loads. Beam properties may be entered numerically or by simply tapping and dragging, with an extensive multi-national section library built-in, plus a section generator for custom-sized cross-sections of common shapes.
There is an emphasis on quick and precise input of high-resolution data through graphical drag-and-tap interaction, with numeric input available as an alternative.
Instantly available, clear graphical representations of deflections and force envelopes, with smooth curves and sharp discontinuities, are interactive with slider bars for reading off results at any point along the beam, together with single-tap access to maxima/minima and other points of interest.
Loads can consist of any combination of point loads, couples, UDLs, and trapezoidal distributed loads at any points along the span. Distributed loads can be assymetrical and of any length along the span.
A single-tap is all that is needed to change the end support conditions to quickly switch between fully fixed, fixed/pinned, simply supported, and cantilevers.

Miscellaneous fixes and improvements.
Updates to section library.
Added larger Australian SHS & RHS sections.
Added Japanese HJ sections.
Added American hollow sections.
Added Australian sections.
Specification upgrade and additional features.
Maximum beam length increased to 40 m (metric) or 1600" (imperial).
A reset button is provided for clearing all of the model data.
American sections renamed to American format.
The section generator now includes dedicated solid oval and rectangular bars for convenience.
This is a recommended update for all users of imperial units.
Fixes a bug relating to incorrect imperial units being used for distributed loads. They have been corrected to kip/ft.
For consistency, all moment forces have been changed to kip-ft, and for clarity units are displayed while editing distributed loads.
Metric users are unaffected.
