STAAD.beam is the latest member of the STAAD family of structural
analysis and design products. In todays competitive market,
structural engineers need to quickly and accurately determine the
capacity of an existing beam or optimize a new one without having to
open a huge 3D analysis and design program like STAAD.Pro. With
STAAD.beam, you can design composite, non-composite or partially
composite steel beams in seconds. The beams can be cantilevered
(overhangs), have multiple spans and even rectangular and circular
composite or non-composite web openings. Unlike most software that
just spit out lines of output, STAAD.beam provides step-by-step hand
calculations with all formulae, intermediate values and code clauses
presented in HTML/XML format. There is no guessing as to how
STAAD.beam came up with the final camber, the stud spacing layout or
the floor vibration calculations. STAAD.beam is a must on every
engineers desktop!
