What is a Steel Strength Calculator?
A steel strength calculator estimates the allowable load a steel member can carry based on factors such as steel grade, section type, section size, and applied loads.
It ensures that the steel member operates within its safe strength limits.
Why use a Steel Strength Calculator?
- Safety Assurance: Ensures that steel members can safely support applied loads without failure.
- Material Optimization: Helps optimize steel member sizes for cost-effectiveness.
- Code Compliance: Assists in complying with building codes and standards related to steel strength.
- Efficiency: Speeds up the design process by automating strength calculations.
