Illustrative worked example · the live tool runs the full UNIT 1050:2005 check. Every module is hand-validated against published examples before it ships.
Beams, slabs, columns, frames, retaining walls and the full footing family.
Beams, columns, trusses, CLT floors & walls, and dowel-type connections.
Members and connections to EN 1993.
CFRP / GFRP strengthening and members — planned.
Every check already runs to the governing standard, cited clause by clause:
