Description

Deflection Lite is the most interactive, fast, and precise app available for structural beam analysis. Simply drag loads and supports on the beam, and see how it bends.

RESULTS

Calculate reactions, shear force, bending moment, and beam deflection quickly and easily.

CROSS SECTION DATABASES

Specify elastic modulus and moment of inertia values directly, or find common shapes and materials using the built-in databases, which include most international steel sections, as well as some aluminum and wood shapes.

UNLIMITED LOADS AND SUPPORTS

Simply drag any load or support on the beam.

• Concentrated point loads
• Distributed loads
• Moment loads
• Simple supports
• Fixed supports
• Fixed hinges
• Floating Gerber hinges

OTHER FEATURES

• Export your design to a permalink that you can share.
• Automatic detection of local maxima and minima in diagrams
• Metric and standard measurement units

Much improved, but would benefit from better in-application checks/instruction

Perhaps better instruction and/or step-by-step wizards to repeat tasks. For example, beam self-weight seems to be missing, so you have to remember to adjust a manual distributed load on every beam change. That said, recent upgrades to this app have been very good, and it does feel a lot more useable these days.

Developer Response ,

Our apps are designed for competent structural, mechanical, and civil engineering professionals with years of training and experience using similar tools in the industry. Deflection Lite contains only a subset of the functionality and complexity that the other tiers offer.
