Civil Engineering Calculations

Basic and advanced calculation tools you will need in your civil engineering projects and education:

Finds the required concrete volume and amount of cement, sand and gravel for a given building element.

Calculates the number of bricks/blocks and mortar materials required for the wall area.

Estimates the amount of paint required to paint a given surface area.

Calculates the number of tiles/ceramics and grout materials required for a given area.

Calculates the maximum bending moment and shear force of beams under different loading conditions.

Finds the maximum deflection (deflection) of the beam under a certain load.

Calculates moments of inertia for different cross-sectional areas (rectangle, circle, I-beam).

Finds the axial load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete or steel short columns.

Estimates the safe bearing capacity of the soil for shallow foundations.

Estimates the expected amount of settlement due to consolidation in soft clays.

Calculates energy loss due to friction in pressurized pipelines.

It finds the flow rate/velocity according to the cross-section, slope and roughness of the channels (rectangular, triangular, trapezoidal).

Calculates the safe minimum horizontal curve radius in road design.
