Overview

About the Calculator

Quickly analyse factored loads on a simple or continuous beam with the ClearCalcs Beam Analysis with Load Combinations calculator. The calculator allows unlimited loads and supports, and automatically factors loads to United States standards for fast analysis of strength and serviceability limit states.

The fastest way to model & engineer beams

Perform lightning-fast analysis of simple and continuous beams by inputting the geometry and loading of a beam for analysis in a few simple steps.

Highly accurate FEA-based results

Determines bending moment, shear and deflection diagrams, and maximum demands using a powerful finite element analysis (FEA) engine.

Support simple formula for quick in-cell load calculations

All ClearCalcs calculations automatically solve as you type. Easily view the effect of different scenarios on your designs and avoid wasting time waiting for your calculations to solve.

Load input and combinations

The calculator supports a variety of different loading types which can be applied in combination.

Why ClearCalcs?

Frustration to Flow

See how ClearCalcs transforms structural calculations from a tedious, error-prone chore into an efficient, stress-free process.

With spreadsheets and clunky software

Frustration, fuss, and fragile formulas—the old way of engineering calculations that holds you back

Struggle with endless spreadsheets and custom formulas.

Building codes change, but outdated software and spreadsheets don’t.

Triple-check and verify manual input at every turn.

Old software feels like a maze, with unclear settings, limited templates, and rigid interfaces.

With ClearCalcs

Effortless, efficient engineering calculations at your fingertips.

100+ pre-built calculators for different materials.

Every calculation comply with the latest codes and standards.

Forget the worry of “black box” calculations; verify calculators with inline formulas, codes, and checks.

Intuitive tools built to your workflow, plus unmatched customer support.

How It Works

Your code-compliant calculator

Tired of complex calculations? ClearCalcs Calculator Library keeps it simple, secure and code-compliant – so you can calculate with confidence.

Save time with ready-to-use templates for wood, steel, and concrete

ClearCalcs offers an extensive library of easy-to-use calculators for beams, columns, and footings, designed to make structural calculations simpler and faster.

Choose from a wide range of pre-configured beam and column options, complete with automatic member sizing, so you can quickly reach reliable designs and reduce rework.

Beams

Columns

Foundations

Walls

Loads

Dynamically track your load paths from roof to foundation

No need to copy and paste reactions between calculations! If the top calculator's reactions change, the loads being inherited onto the lower calculator will update automatically. This includes all loads such as dead, live, snow, seismic, and wind.

Submit professional reports for permit review

ClearCalcs is not only easy to use, but also easy to check! All calculations follow an easy to understand traffic light check system, with multiple levels of detail available giving you the choice of printing every step of the calculation and all code and standard references, or simply a compact, one-page print out.
