Deflection Lite is an easy-to-use app designed for structural beam analysis. It helps you understand how beams behave when loads are applied. You can interactively drag loads and supports on the beam right on your screen and see how it bends.

With Deflection Lite, you can quickly calculate important values such as reactions, shear force, bending moment, and beam deflection measurement. The app is not only fast but also precise, making it perfect for both beginners and experienced users.

One of the standout features of Deflection Lite is its cross section databases. You can specify elastic modulus and moment of inertia values directly or use the built-in databases to find common shapes and materials. These databases include international steel sections along with some aluminum and wood beam shapes, giving you options for various projects.

You also have unlimited options for loads and supports. The app allows you to drag any load, such as concentrated point loads or distributed loads, onto the beam. You can perform moment loads analysis easily, and it supports simple supports modeling as well as fixed supports. Additionally, Deflection Lite lets you work with fixed hinges and floating Gerber hinges, providing you with comprehensive load and support management.

Another helpful feature is the ability to export your design to a permalink. This means you can easily share your work with others. Plus, the app automatically detects local maxima and minima in diagrams, making it easier for you to visualize results. Whether you prefer metric measurement units or standard measurement units, Deflection Lite has you covered.

Deflection Lite truly offers an interactive load simulation experience. Its user-friendly interface makes it simple for anyone to use, while its dynamic beam visualization helps you see the effects of your changes in real-time. This makes it a valuable tool for anyone involved in structural engineering applications or any project that requires precision beam calculations.
