spBeam 10.00

spBeam is structural engineering software for analyzing, designing, and detailing one-way reinforced concrete slabs, continuous beams, and beam systems (including standard and wide modular configurations).

With an intuitive graphical interface, engineers can define one-way slab and beam geometry, material properties, support conditions, and a variety of loading scenarios, including point loads, line loads, and area loads. spBeam supports up to 20 spans and two cantilever beams with dynamic load modeling for efficient and accurate modeling of complex floor systems.

Features of spBeam

• Complete design for bending and shearing with output of reinforcement calculation tables (number of bars, size, length and spacing)
• Consideration of torsional effects in design and shear survey, allowing for greater cross-section savings
• Moment redistribution feature allows for up to 20% reduction in negative moments on supports to reduce rebar congestion
• Supports US (ACI 318) and Canadian (CSA A23.3) design standards
• Design mode to create new rebar layouts and survey mode to check existing rebar configurations
• Ability to add and remove self-weight in critical and service load combinations
• Dynamic frame design and analysis tools with detailed top and bottom rebar layouts, including development lengths and material quantities
• Custom input, including templates for one-way slab and beam systems, to quickly create models based on spans, supports, loads, and materials
• Modern reporting tools with customizable, printable, and exportable reports, including diagrams and screenshots
