SectionCalc® is groundbreaking software wizard that enables users to calculate all fourteen (14) vital section-properties of any profile in any DXF-compliant CAD application in less than one minute. Best pf all, SectionCalc is priced to justify on every engineer’s desktop.

How does SectionCalc work?

Calculating section properties with SectionCalc is easy as 1, 2, and 3.

1. Save profile geometry of the section in CAD in DXF standard file format.
2. Start SectionCalc and simply load the DXF file.
3. See results in seconds

Following section properties are simultaneously calculated and displayed in SectionCalc in one step.

• Area
• Perimeter
• Centroid location (x and y co-ordinates)
• Moments of Inertia (Ixx, Iyy)
• Product of Inertia
• Polar Moments of Inertia
• Distance of neutral axis from extremes (Cx and Cy)
• Radius of gyration (kx and ky)
• Section Modulus (Sx and Sy)

Results can be saved in CSV standard format for report generation.
