## Deflection Description
Deflection is a powerful, versatile calculator for beams, 2D trusses, and 2D frames.  The interface is simple and intuitive, and the graphical output is state-of-the-art.  In addition to reaction, shear, bending moment, and deflection results, Deflection also computes internal shear and bending stress along the cross section and along the beam.

2D FRAME AND TRUSS EDITOR

The 2D editor is seamlessly integrated with the beam editor.  Draw arbitrary frame and truss structures and apply loads and constraints using the same simple interface as for beams.  You can visualize results directly within the 2D editor, or you can select a beam and get additional insights. 

INTERNAL STRESSES

Obtain internal bending and shear stress diagrams in addition to shear, bending, and deflection diagrams.  The internal stresses can be visualized along the length of the beam as well as along the vertical axis of the cross section using the beam editor.

CROSS SECTION EDITOR

Edit built-in cross sections.  Moment of inertia and area values are automatically calculated and applied to the rest of the beam calculations.

MORE FEATURES

• The built-in database contains more data for your reference and convenience.
• Apply beam self-weight optionally
• Unlimited design files
• Quick-start templates

## Deflection Reviews in United States

### ****- "Flexural Rigidity (EI)"
Would be great if there’s an option for different EI at different span.
-- TryAgainForNick, 2022-05-25

### ***** "I love this application so much."
If you are mechanical, civil engineer or chemical engineer or some, you should get this app. 

This is really accurate and compact to use at site and office. 

I really appreciate for this app to the developer. 

You are my HERO.
-- culown, 2021-11-16

### ****- "Great Application for quick accurate beam evaluations"
Great sanity check software before delving into a solid model evaluation
-- faader4100, 2019-08-18

### ***-- "Needs polishing"
Kinda klunky interface.  The calculator layout is poor.   Calculator needs means of entering scientific notation.  Missing aluminum extrusions.  Should have a way to favorite beam shapes and add user defined ones.   I prefer scientific notation normalized to be x.xx x10^x not xxx.x x10^x

Not sure why 10x length limitation.
-- 8Way, 2019-03-18

### ****- "it can be better"
it should have angle for better experiment
-- benyamin 5s, 2019-03-10

### ***-- "Good try, but half finished app!"
OK not meaning to put the dev down as this is a nice approach but I think the dev should have spent more time making the app workable than playing with the interface. The app is so called "version 5.0". One would assume from this it would have passed through four major iterations to get to this point. The app feels like beta release 0.9.
The following are missing.
1. Save and file functions
2. Undo and redo
3. A "help" or tutorial.
Also what would be nice would be the ability to design or draw beam sections instead of using the only ones offered. All that is provided is a database of standard sections downloaded off the internet, this would have been provided by version 3 or 4. 
The app feels like an engineer grad student trying to show off the engineering knowledge. Any of the five star reviews are either friends of the dev or purchasers of previous versions who are happy to see progress.
If I have misrepresented the dev and invite them to contact me and I will revise my review.
-- @DPKG, 2018-04-09

### ***** "Radians"
I just wanted to let you guys know that there is a flaw in the calculation of the theta value! It is 10 Times smaller than the actual value. There must be a bug for that output.
-- Poplar12354, 2017-11-16

### **--- "Structural Review and Shortcomings"
Love the app, great visual interface...but why not 50 and 65 KSI steel?

Today almost all structural steel is grade 50 KSI....this application is now limited to 36 KSI steel design. To make application useful it needs that upgrade.
-- RobertSteel54, 2016-04-10

### ***** "This is amazing"
This app should be given a award by the educators. Must for engineers✨👌🏻✨.
-- Sudh, 2016-04-08

### ****- "Nice beam calculator"
I have really enjoyed using this very nice beam calculator. I've tried several and this is, by far, the most elegant interface. I love the presentation of the diagrams and how quickly you can modify the situations. 
One constructive comment would be to add an option to use a custom rectangular shape. The material library includes concrete but you have to use a custom moment of inertia. Granted that's a super easy calc but it would be nice to stay in the app and just tap a length and width.
Love it, Love it though.
Thanks.
