Beam Analysis.
Inside Excel.

Link your beam span to cell B2 and sweep values from 3m to 12m. Reactions, moments, and deflections update live in your worksheet — no re-entering anything. Chain results into downstream calcs like connection design or foundation sizing, all inside one workbook.

• 2-second live polling
• Links persist in .xlsx
• Chain into wider calcs

Model actual loading conditions — not simplified approximations. Trapezoidal loads for soil pressure, triangular for hydrostatic, moment loads for cantilever brackets, and load arrays for equally-spaced purlins or joists. Each one can be cell-linked independently.

• 7 load types
• Load arrays for repetitive loads
• All cell-linkable

Export shear force, bending moment, and deflection diagrams directly into your worksheet as native Excel shapes. Resize them, move them, and they stay crisp at any scale. One-click re-export updates them in place when your model changes — no deleting and re-inserting.

• Vector shapes, not images
• Properly labelled axes
• One-click re-export

The solver assembles a global stiffness matrix from Euler-Bernoulli beam elements, applies boundary conditions, and solves Ku = F directly. That means proper moment redistribution across continuous spans, realistic spring supports with rotational and translational stiffness, and accurate deflection profiles — not textbook approximations.

• Global stiffness matrix
• Spring supports
• Any span configuration

Pick a section from the full catalogue and see results instantly. Swap between a 457x191 UB and a 533x210 UB in two clicks to compare utilisation. All section properties — area, second moment, plastic modulus, root radius — are built in and verified against published data.

• UK, European & hollow sections
• Instant swap
• Verified properties

Email the .xlsx to a colleague and they open it with the full beam model intact — loads, supports, cell links, everything. No project files to lose, no cloud accounts to set up. The analysis travels with the workbook because it's stored in Excel's custom XML metadata.

• Stored in .xlsx metadata
• No cloud dependency
• Full model portability
