RC Section: The Comprehensive Eurocode 2 Engineering Suite RC Section is the ultimate mobile companion for structural engineers, architects, and civil engineering students. Engineered for professional-grade precision, this app simplifies the complex analysis of reinforced concrete elements, ensuring full compliance with Eurocode 2 and various National Determined Parameters (NDPs). Whether you’re performing a quick site check, conducting a preliminary design, or verifying complex biaxial loads, RC Section provides a high-performance workflow directly in your pocket. Bending & Shear Analysis: Complete Ultimate Limit State (ULS) checks for rectangular and T-sections. Materials & Durability: Comprehensive database for concrete classes and reinforcement steel grades. Calculate required concrete cover based on environmental exposure and design life. Column Design: Evaluate axial load and bending moment interaction with failure envelopes for clear safety margin visualization. Visual Feedback: High-quality diagrams for stress-strain distribution, section geometry, and reinforcement layouts.
Cantilever Retaining Wall
This app assists in the design and analysis of cantilever retaining walls. It performs stability evaluations for overturning, bearing, and sliding, and designs wall components for bending and shear. Comprehensive reports are generated in PDF and DXF formats.
- Stability evaluation (overturning, bearing, sliding)
- Component design (stem, heel, toe, key)
- Bending and shear calculations
- PDF and DXF report generation
- Graphic display of forces and diagrams
- Reinforcement optimization
