ConBeamU 4.05 and ConBeampy 1.02

The latest update of the two continuous beam spreadsheets can be downloaded from:

The main changes are:

  • A problem with point loads applied exactly at a support position has been corrected
  • A function has been added to evaluate 3D end actions for a beam with any combination of 3D loading, any number of segments, and any combination of fixed or spring restraints at the ends.

The screen-shots below show the function input and output documentation, and example results:

REAct3D1-1

REAct3D1-2

REAct3D1-3

REAct3D1-4

The Python version requires an installed copy of Python, including Numpy and Scipy. All other required files are included.
