A collection of classes for CE that do not use ATL or MFC, plus an FTP client, database viewer, and sample application that solves beam deflection equations.
<h1>Instructions</h1>
<h2>About Beamex</h2>
<P>
<em><b>Beamex is solver of standard beam deflection equations. </b></em><P>
When you enter information regarding the cross section,<BR>
length, material, and appliedforces, Beamex will calculate <br>
the deflection at a desired point and the max deflection <br>
of the beam.  Beamex works using the English system of <br>
units (inch, pound).<P>
When using Beamex, the input is done with three tabs <br>
named <B>Cross Section, Scenario, and Material</b>.  The <br>
results appear at the top of the window under the heading <br>
Beam Results.  You can Save and Open analyses you have <br>
done previously.  They are saved (Where Kenny?)
<P>
<h2>Inputing Data </h2>
<a href="section.html">Cross Section</a><br>
<a href="scenario.html">Scenario</a><br>
<a href="material.html">Material</a><br>

<h2>Credits</h2>
Beamex is Freeware!  The concept is by Kevin Kellar,<br>
and all of the programming was done by Kenny Goers.<br>
The interface was a collaborative effort between us!<P>

to the performance of this program.  We assume no liability or
responsibility for any discrepancies between the calculated results
from the program and any designs based on these results.  In 
no event shall we assume any liability or responsibility to

<h1>Scenario help</h1>
<P>
There are 6 loading scenarios that you can choose from.<br>
You must select a scenario type, and give it values for <br>
the length of the beam, the force applied, and the point <br>
to measure deflection at.  The force applied depends on <br>
the which scenario you choose (see below for more discussion).<P>
To bring up the dialog box with your choices <br>
choose the button labeled ... under the Scenario Tab.<P>
<b>Scenarios:</b><br>
(1)Cantilever-force applied at end<br>
(2)Cantilever-force distributed evenly<br> 
(3)Cantilever with torque applied at end*<br>
(4)Dual-supported-force at center<br>
(5)Dual-supported-force distributed evenly<br>
<P><i>*The torque can actually be applied <br>
anywhere on the beam and yield the same results.</i><P>
