Combined Structural Calculation Package

The whole thing, cover to cover: a load take-down, a steel beam AND a roof truss, results tables and a design summary — every feature of the builder in one submission-ready package.

What this example shows

  • A cover page with the firm logo, a page-numbered header/footer, and a table of contents across multiple pages.
  • A paste-from-Excel load take-down with live =SUM formulas, a merged total row and column widths.
  • Real typeset equations, a solved extruded BEAM diagram AND a solved extruded TRUSS with gusset joints.
  • Solver results tables for both — beam reactions and the full truss member-force schedule.
  • Figure and table numbering with self-updating cross-references, tags, and bullet/numbered lists.

The model, and what it works out to

ContentsA load take-down, a steel beam and a roof truss in one submission
Derived load8.0 kN/m from the take-down schedule
Beam B16.0 m span plus a 2.0 m overhang, with a 15 kN·m applied end moment
Beam reactions11.5 kN at A, 12.5 kN at B
Overhang moment−15 kN·m hogging, carried back into the back span
Truss T1Warren, four panels at 4.0 m over a 3.0 m height, 20 kN per bottom-chord node

Every number above is worked in the document itself — by hand first, then against the StructureCalcs solver — and the downloadable .screport file carries the live model, so you can open it in the Report Builder and change any input.

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.
