CASA Beam for Android

This app is terrible, no help option, hard to input parameters, and unclear endpoint supports.

As an ME who does a variety of design, this app is very useful not only in calculating shape inertia, but also in estimating effect of complex multiple loads on beams.

As a mechanical contractor and not a trained engineer, I needed a quick and easy to use reference to confirm the designed and on-the-fly beam choices for equipment installations I do. This program far exceeds my expectations. The user interface is intuitive and precise. The choices of material shapes are beyond comprehensive, yet simple to find or create. This app, in my opinion, really sets the standard of a well thought out utility that has managed to provide an immense amount of information in a manner that is respectful to the user. No extraneous bling and no obscure operations. This was for me, money well spent. To the developers, a sincere thank you.

I have been greatly dissapointed with all the other structural enginering apps on this site. However, Casa Beam is an excellent application. They have fixed a major problem with the app giving incorrect results for a beam using distributed loads when using imperial units. I have checked several textbook examples using this new version and found the results to be correct in all cases. The user interface for this app is one of the most inovative I have seen. It is just right to solve and present results for structural engineering problems. Students, structural engineers, constructions engineers, and architects will find this app to be very usefull. As a professional structural engineer I will probably use it most often to obtain preliminary beam and plate girder sizes. Support for this app has been very good also. I had found a problem with the solution results and after contacting them they had it fixed and into the Google store almost overnight. I also, offered several suggestions I thought would make the app even more convenient to use and they have been very receptive. Some of these suggestions may be coming out in the next update. In short, I highly recommend this app.
