Steel

This tool analyzes steel beams and columns under axial loads and uniaxial or biaxial bending. The result is a Stress Ratio, which compares the actual stress to the allowable stress. Calculations are based on the American Institute of Steel Construction's Specification for Structural Steel Buildings-Allowable Stress Design and Plastic Design, 1989.

This tool analyzes the capacities and utilization factors of IPE and HE steel sections. It takes into account the effects of bending, shear, and axial compression or tension on the sections. All calculations follow the guidelines established in EN 1993-1-1 (2005) - Design of steel structures - Part 1-1: General rules and rules for buildings.

Calculate the minimum required thickness of your base plate and check the allowable bearing strength of the concrete footing.

This tool calculates he moment of inertia for a rectangular hollow section. That includes Square Hollow Sections and Rectangualr Hollow Sections. Enter the height, width and thickness of your section to get the results.

This tool calculates member capacities for purlins and girts according to the American Iron and Steel Institute (AISI) S100-16 standards. The purlins are produced by AEP. Note that: (1) it uses section sizes listed in AEP's catalog, (2) Measurements are in imperial units, and (3) The webs do not include transverse stiffeners.

This tool designs standard steel sections by calculating the flexural and axial design capacities using Ultimate Limit State (ULS) methods. The calculations comply with AS 4100-2020.
