Everything you need to know about Beam Solver

What is Beam Solver?

Beam Solver is an online calculator specialized in structural analysis of continuous beams. It solves statically indeterminate systems using matrix methods, generating precise bending moment, shear force and deflection diagrams. Perfect for verifying manual calculations or exploring different configurations.

Supported Beam Types

Analyze simply supported, fixed, cantilever and continuous beams with multiple spans. Supports combinations of simple, fixed and pinned supports in the same structure, allowing you to model complex real-world cases.

Loads and Moments

Apply point loads, uniform distributed loads, triangular distributed loads and concentrated moments. Combine different load types on the same beam to simulate real service conditions. Ideal for dead load, live load and special action analysis.

Professional Results

Get bending moment, shear force and deflection diagrams with precise numerical values. Reactions at all supports are calculated automatically. Results ready to include in calculation reports and technical documentation.

For Students

Ideal educational tool for structural analysis, mechanics of materials and design courses. Visualize theoretical concepts with clear diagrams. Perfect for verifying exercises and understanding the structural behavior of statically indeterminate beams.

For Professionals

Quick validation of preliminary calculations and exploration of design alternatives. Useful in conceptual project stages where different structural configurations need evaluation without expensive specialized software.

How to use Beam Solver step by step

1. Define Geometry

Set the total length of your beam and divide into spans as needed. Define support positions and specify the type: simple, fixed or pinned.

2. Apply Loads

Input point loads with magnitude and position. Define distributed loads specifying intensity and application zone. Add concentrated moments where applicable.

3. Run Analysis

The solver automatically processes the structure using matrix methods. Calculation is instantaneous for most continuous beam configurations.

4. Review Results

Examine the generated diagrams: bending moment (M), shear force (V) and deflection. Verify calculated reactions at each support. All values are displayed with numerical precision.
