Moments of Inertia
Available for the iPhone and iPad
If you need a beam’s moments of inertia, cross sectional area, centroid, or radius of gyration, you need this app. This app was created to assist you in these calculations and to ensure that your beam section calculations are fast and accurate. Simply select from the available geometries, enter in the required dimensions and the answers will be generated complete with the formulae. You can also easily print or email a PDF of your results along with a schematic of the beam’s cross section.
