Overview

Description

Free app for analyzing a cantilever beam with a concentrated load. Of interest to civil, structural, and mechanical engineers.

Input:

Type of units to be used (SI or US Customary)

Length

Distance to point where load is applied

Distance, x, to point where deflection is to be calculated

Elastic modulus

Moment of inertia

Load magnitude

Results:

Maximum deflection

Deflection at x

Maximum moment (occurs at support)

Maximum shear

Reaction force at support
