Beams provides a quick method to obtain beam moment, shear, stress, rotation and deflection values. The program will analyze most of the single span beam configurations shown in the AISC manual, as well as multi-span beams. It also lets you place several different load types on a single beam.It includes a database of AISC shape section properties. You can also calculate section properties of various shapes. The pertinent values displayed in the section property calculator and the shape data base will directly transfer to the beam analysis portion of the program.The program also has a function to calculate torsional shear stress on selected solid and closed members. The multi-span and single span output screens display a shear, moment and deflected shape diagram of the system.The single span beam input allows input of an axial load. By adding an axial load you can use this program to review columns.The program will accept input in Metric (SI units) or US System.
