BeamDesign is an innovative and powerful app designed specifically for civil engineers, mechanical engineers, architects, and students involved in designing 1D hyperstatic frames. Leveraging the Finite Element Method (FEM), BeamDesign provides instant calculation results, allowing users to input and edit geometry, forces, supports, load cases, and more. With features like various load types, different connection and support options, and the ability to add or edit materials and sections, BeamDesign offers a comprehensive design experience.
Features of BeamDesign:
- Intuitive Design Input: Easily input and edit geometry, forces, supports, and load cases to create your desired frame design. The app performs calculations instantly, saving you valuable time.
- Comprehensive Load Options: Simulate real-life scenarios with various load options like F, T, and q (rectangular and triangular) loads. Choose between fixed and hinge connections at beam ends, as well as different support types (fixed, hinge, roller, and spring) in any direction.
- Advanced Design Capabilities: Incorporate imposed deflections to ensure your design can withstand external factors. Easily add or edit materials and sections to tailor your frame design to specific requirements.
- Thorough Analysis: Analyze your frame design with load cases and load combinations, including safety factors. The app provides comprehensive analysis of moment, shear, stress, deflection, reaction forces, and unity checks, ensuring the reliability and safety of your structure.
- Stay Ahead of the Curve: Become a Beta Tester and contribute to the app's continuous improvement. A web version of BeamDesign is also available for added convenience.
In conclusion, BeamDesign is a powerful tool that empowers civil engineers, mechanical engineers, architects, and students to design 1D hyperstatic frames with ease. Its comprehensive features, including load options, connection types, support options, material and section editing, and comprehensive analysis capabilities, make it a must-have for anyone in the field.
