Quick Start

Enter this string into the calculator to get a glimpse of what it does.

(If you paste the code and an error is given, run it again. And also make sure you have copied the base64 string correct.)

How to

Enter Beam Data

1. Leave the Base64 Output Section blank
2. Click "Submit"
3. A form will pop up and you can input your beam data, namely loads, supports and moments
4. When you are done entering the data, copy the b64 output (aka the random characters) in the end

Make sure you meet the requirements, and paste the b64 output exact as is, or an error will be thrown.

• A valid beam must have at exact 2 fixed or roller supports, or only one fixed support or it will be indeterminate or unstable
• The roller support cannot generate a downward reaction force. Or the beam will simply fall over.
• All support, loads and supports must be within the range of beam length length.

Get the Calculated Result

1. Paste the base64 string exactly as is into the Base64 Output
2. Click "Submit"
3. The free body diagram, shear force diagram and bending moment diagram, and the graphing data will be given in csv format.
4. Enjoy
