| Software Name: | SectionCalc |
| Description: | SectionCalc enables to quickly calculate the following 14 sectional properties from graphical input: area, centroid location, perimeter, moments of inertia (Ixx and Iyy), product of inertia, polar moments of inertia, distance of neutral axis from extremes (Cx and Cy), radius of gyration (kx and ky), section modulii (Sx and Sy). Using DXF format, SectionCalc can also import cross sections created in many popular CAD applications. |

SectionCalc enables to quickly calculate the 14 basic sectional properties from graphical input.
Pros
- quickly obtains basic section properties
Cons
- section must be first drawn in CAD before it can be analyzed in SectionCalc (there are no editing capabilities within SectionCalc).
- does not handle thin-walled cross sections
