Library of functions for structural beam statics applications.

1. Create a beam
2. Add load data using static methods
3. Build and combine load effects
4. Display and export data

Create a new beam instance:

beam = Beam(length)

Static class that provides Beam classes with simply supported, concentrated load shear and moment information. Add individual loads on a beam object but passing it as the first argument:

Simple_Point(beam, P, a)

Follow the Beam object argument with the load magnitude P and the distance a from the left support.

Positive P acts downward.

Beam.Show_All() writes .png files to the ~/Documents/Statics folder. Example shear and moment output images are below. Note the combination load effect is a bold blue line, while load effects from point loads are shown as pink, and distributed loads as lightblue.
