Beam analysis app for moment, shear, deflection and rotation

Features & Capabilities

Beam HPC is a user-friendly Chrome extension designed for educational purposes to analyze beams under various loading conditions. It computes moment, shear, deflection, and rotation diagrams efficiently, accommodating different loading types such as point forces, moments, and distributed loads. Users can interactively adjust the load locations and magnitudes, with real-time updates to results.

The extension supports three types of boundary conditions: pinned, fixed, and vertical roller supports. It also allows the beam to be divided into multiple segments, each with customizable moment of inertia (I) and stiffness (E) properties. The intuitive click-and-drag interface enables quick modifications and comparisons, making it a valuable tool for students and educators in structural engineering. Please note, Beam HPC is intended strictly for educational use and does not guarantee commercial-grade accuracy or warranties.

User Reviews

Beam HPC is praised for its simplicity, user-friendly, and powerful features that greatly aid civil engineers and students with beam deflection, moment, and shear calculations. It is free and ad-free, making it popular among users. However, recurring issues include lack of save functionality, closely placed buttons leading to accidental clears, limited capability beyond examples, occasional inaccuracies, and missing advanced analysis features like moving loads and reaction calculations. Overall, users find the app useful but desire enhancements for more comprehensive engineering analysis.

Pros

Easy and user-friendly interface for beam analysis
Free and no ads, making it accessible for students and professionals
Powerful and effective functionality for civil engineering calculations
Saves time and simplifies beam deflection and moment calculations
Dynamic interface allowing for quick input and manipulation

Cons

Lack of option to save cases and results
Buttons like 'clear' and 'reactions' are too close without confirmation prompt leading to accidental data loss
Unable to perform calculations beyond the provided example (limited operational capabilities)
Some inaccurate values reported compared to manual calculations
Limited features such as no moving load analysis or reaction calculations
