Essential spreadsheet for designing steel beams in accordance with European Standard, now in force throughout Europe. The spreadsheet, due to its form, easy input and clear output reduces time required for designing steel members. It includes lateral torsional buckling check therefore is a comprehensive and an important tool for structural engineers. The spreadsheet has a large database of British and European steel sections. This spreadsheet was specially developed for Windows and Mac users.
