Optimal Beam is a simple and easy to use online beam calculator. It solves statically determinate and indeterminate beam models and provides support reactions, shear force, bending moment, deflection and stress diagrams.
- Get a simplified analysis of your beam model which includes support reactions and interactive charts for shear force, bending moment, deflection and stress in a matter of seconds.
- Convert your model setup to the units you are used to. It includes both the imperial and metric systems.
- Specify unlimited support types and loading conditions on your beam model.
- Specify any cross section or material by inputting a few properties. These sections can be saved for future use.
- Diagrams provide a summary of the maximum/minimum locations and values which can be used for design.
- Save models for future reference and access them anytime.
- Export model results to PDF. The PDF report is professionally formatted and can be used for calculation packages.
