User reviews

Hassan

Ite very good and usefull thank you

Intuitive and Simple

This program is simple to use and follows the same methodology taught in mechanics books without being distracting like most other programs of similar type. It is not bloated or over-complicated, yet yields nice shear and moment, etc., diagrams in a quality you might expect from your mechanics class.

FAQ

What types of diagrams can Beam HPC calculate?

Beam HPC calculates moment, shear, and deflection diagrams for beams. It also provides rotation diagrams.

What kind of loads can be applied to a beam in Beam HPC?

You can apply forces, moments, and distributed loads to the beam. The location and magnitude of these loads can be adjusted at any time.

Does Beam HPC support different beam materials and properties?

Yes, each beam segment can have a different moment of inertia (I) and stiffness (E), allowing for analysis of beams with varying material properties.

Is Beam HPC suitable for professional structural engineering?

No, this program is designed for educational uses only and should not be used for commercial purposes. There is no warranty or guarantee of accuracy.

How often is Beam HPC updated?

The latest version is 1.1.38, last updated on November 14, 2021. Updates are not very frequent, but the core functionality remains stable for educational use.

What devices is Beam HPC available on?

Beam HPC is available on iPhone, iPad, and iPod devices, making it accessible for mobile learning.

Does Beam HPC have ads?

No, Beam HPC is ad-free, providing an uninterrupted learning experience for users.

What are the supported boundary conditions in Beam HPC?

Beam HPC supports three types of supports: pinned, fixed, and vertical roller, allowing for a range of structural scenarios to be modeled.
