Excel based analysis software to analyze continuous beams with variable support conditions. Supports static and vehicle loads, performs plastic and beam on elastic foundation analyses. It's very easy to use and praised by the engineers as the most productive and straight forward beam analysis software.
The most intuitive and user-friendly continuous beam analysis software available. It supports both static and moving loads, accounts for support settlements, and offers non-linear analysis of beams on elastic foundations, plastic moment redistribution, and influence line analysis. The program also models elastic springs, column supports, in-span hinges, and variable beam stiffness.
GoBeam is designed for maximum productivity. Its intuitive interface allows engineers to input beam parameters quickly and generate comprehensive results complete with graphs and tables.
Key Features:
Modeling
Model up to 100 continuous spans
Apply concentrated, distributed, and support displacement loads
Include column supports option (above or below the beam)
Use elastic or compression-only support types
Insert in-span hinges for moment release
Elastic and compression only supports
In-span hinges (moment release)
Assign variable stiffness within individual spans
Enable sway frame behavior for beams with lateral column interaction
