Beam Deflection Calculator
Quickly calculate beam deflection, bending stress, and structural response for standard load cases.
Ideal for mechanical engineers, civil engineers, maintenance teams, and students working with beams, shafts, and structural elements. Just enter load, beam type, length, Young’s modulus, and moment of inertia — the tool instantly computes deflection & bending.
Bending Stress & Load Analysis Tool
The tool uses standard formulas: 1️⃣ Point Load at Center : δ=FL^3/48EI
2️⃣ Uniformly Distributed Load : δ=5wL^4/384EI
Where: F = Load (N), L = Beam length (m), E = Young’s Modulus (Pa), I = Area moment of inertia (m⁴)
🧭 How to Use
FAQ
1. What units should I use?
Use N, m, GPa, and m⁴ for correct output.
2. Does this support cantilever beams?
Not in this version — can be added if needed.
3. Is this calculator accurate for real structures?
Yes for theoretical estimation. Actual results vary based on material quality & constraints.
4. How can I calculate Moment of Inertia (I)?
You can compute using section formulas (rectangle, I-beam, pipe, etc.).
