What the calculator is for
Dimensions are converted into the geometric basis for stress, stiffness, and preliminary sizing. For example, a rectangular beam's section modulus can feed the bending-stress calculator directly.

Results
ƒ(x)
Set the inputs and run the calculation.
What still needs checking
The calculation uses ideal nominal geometry. Profile radii, tolerances, local buckling, and plastic reserve are excluded.
