Deflection Pro is an advanced structural analysis calculator for beam, truss, and frame design. The software is designed to be simple, intuitive, and useful for structural engineers worldwide. Like our other apps, it is designed to run on all your devices. LOAD COMBINATIONS Deflection Pro generates common load combinations based on American and European standards. Simply select a desired design method in the settings page and assign a category to each load. The results are seamlessly aggregated and integrated into the same charts and interface as if you were designing a simple beam case. BEAM COLUMN CAPACITY CHECKS Deflection Pro calculates beam column strength capacity for flexure, shear, tension, and compression based on the AISC specification. The software accurately reproduces tabulated values in steel construction manuals. Flexure Design • Yielding • Lateral torsional buckling • Local buckling • Flange local buckling • Compression flange local buckling • Web local buckling • Compression tee stem local buckling Shear Design • Web shear strength • Web shear strength, considering field action Tension Design • Yielding tensile strength • Rupture tensile strength Compression Design • Flexural buckling • Torsional buckling OTHER FEATURES Since this is our latest and greatest structural analysis app, we are actively improving it and adding new functionality. It receives more frequent updates than other tiers of our software. Other advanced functionality include the ability to directly export to PDF and to save to an external file for backup and sharing.

Missing units
Dear developer. I'd like to express my gratitude for this straightforward and valuable app. I'd like to bring to your attention that in Europe, the standard unit for stress is (N/mm^2), which currently isn't available in the app's settings. Would it be possible to include this unit in the list of stress units? Once more, thank you for your hard work and dedication.
Migrate models?
I’ll return and increase the rating if I learn from the developer how to see my models from the regular version.
2nd review important problem
This app does not consider lateral support of the beam compression flange. This is a serious omission if used by someone that is not knowledgeable with beam design such as architects, construction people, engineering students, etc. At least one app in the App Store does take this in consideration and that is the “Steel Beams” app. However it does not have all the bells an whistles of Deflection Pro.
Excellent app for beam design
The documentation needs a lot of work. One thing is the use of color given in the results diagram. For each item of the results color is used but no mention of it is mentioned in the user manual. Normally red Is bad an green is good but the results show many of the shades of the rainbow. Yellow, purple, etc, but there is no mention of color in the user manual. Some of the problems that others have said thy have I believe come from not understanding how to use the app. Better documentation would solve that problem. However I love the app it is a great piece of work.
