Simply-Supported Steel Beam — Design Check

A one-page beam check done properly: reactions, bending, shear and the span/250 deflection limit, beside the solved diagram — the everyday calc, typeset.

What this example shows

  • A cover page with the firm logo, and a ruled header + page-numbered footer on every page.
  • Real typeset equations — wL²/8, 5wL⁴/384EI and the L/250 check — not screenshots of maths.
  • An extruded beam diagram with reactions, the bending-moment envelope and the deflected shape, solved by the engine and carrying its model inside the file.
  • A support-reactions table lifted straight from the solver, matching the hand calculation.
  • Automatic figure and table numbers, with cross-references in the prose that renumber themselves.

Every number in this report is produced by the StructureCalcs engine from a verified model — the figures are solver-exact and the model travels inside the .screport, so opening it in the builder reconstructs the analysis and lets you carry on.
