<h1>Material help</h1>
<P>
<P>
A stronger material will deflect less than a weaker one, <br>
and it is the Modulus of Elasticity of a material that <br>
determines its resistance to bending. You must choose a <br>
material from the database. This program uses Windows CE <br>
native database routines to store material information. <br>
This will allow you to add materials to the database, and <br>
have them remain there as long as you want, even through a <br>
reboot cycle! To bring up the dialog box with your choices <br>
choose the button labeled ... under the Material Tab.<P>
The database has a sampling of different materials, with the <br>
Modulus of Elasticity (E) expressed in mega-psi (10^6 psi). <br>
These values come from different resources and we make no <br>
guarantees as to their actual values...always make sure you <br>
are comfortable with the E being used as it is the only <br>
"soft parameter" used in Beamex! The use of the database <br>
should be self-explanatory.<P>
