Easy to use single span or continuous (multi-span) beam analysis program with user-friendly interface to build beams with library of loads. Capable of solving statically indeterminate forces and moments and beam deflections. Considers in-plane static loading. Load library includes concentrated forces or moments, uniformly distributed loads which can be overlapped for a composite effect. Includes a library to select AISC common structural shapes with automatic property extraction. In span hinges are available. Units can be chosen including other than US customary and conversion between. Support types include fixed (built-in), pinned (simple), guided, linear or rotational springs. Includes selection of optional custom beam cross-section properties. Material properties include Young's Modulus, Poisson's ratio, density for self-weight.
