AMAZING!!!!
This app is amazing....as a matter of a fact its not an app its a whole structural analysis program. I love the fact that there are all the codes and sections to chose from, lots of materials, the fact that it also gives you a complete report of the analysis and extracts as a pdf also makes this amazing. You get BMD, SFD, FBD, deflected shape...maybe....just maybe in the next update u can add virtual work done and possible a few failure mechanisms.
Fantastic.....if you are a serious structural engineer and want to validate your work this is the SOFTWARE for you.

Great little app for structural engineering students!
This app works great for playing with different structure geometries and load configurations to develop a more intuitive understanding of structure behavior. Being able to see how a structure deforms is especially useful when first learning matrix methods of structural analysis. Since these methods rely upon understanding how a structure deforms under independent free DOF translations, it is useful to have a quick way to check your understanding of the structure deformations for each DOF. This goes doubly for dealing with symmetric/antisymmetric DOF sets in which two or more DOFs translate at the same time.
One major improvement the authors could make to bring this rating up to 5 star: Allow the user to select the input units. For example, I use USA as my unit setting, however the app defaults to inches for inputting structure geometry. Working in inches makes little sense as most structures are measured in 10s to 100s of feet. This makes geometry input a slight nuisance.
Other than that minor complaint, this is a great app, well worth the $1.99! Keep up the good work guys =)
