What is a Steel Span Calculator?
A steel span calculator is a tool used in structural engineering to estimate the maximum span length of a steel beam based on input parameters such as beam type, size, material properties, and applied loads.
It helps in designing and assessing the structural integrity of steel beams.
Why use a Steel Span Calculator?
- Structural Design: Assists in designing steel beams with appropriate span lengths.
- Load Distribution: Helps distribute applied loads efficiently through steel structures.
- Material Selection: Assists in selecting steel materials with suitable properties.
- Code Compliance: Ensures compliance with local building codes and standards.
