TrussSolver

Working as an architect or a construction engineer usually requires you to perform various calculations, in order to ensure certain safety standards to your projects.

However, instead of doing that in the traditional way, you can also turn to specialized software solutions, such as TrussSolver, which might help you achieve quick and efficient results.

Since it is a portable application, you do not need to install it on your computer, as simply unpacking the archive and launching its executable grants you full access to its capabilities.

It does not create any additional files or folders on your PC, nor does it tamper with your Windows registry entries.

This utility comes with a minimalistic layout that packs several functions, which are highly accessible. However, you might need to have specific architecture or engineering knowledge in order to understand and operate them, since they are rather technical.

TrussSolver does not pack any hidden functions or menus since all of its tools can be easily used by clicking their corresponding button from the main window. More so, it features a simple Settings window where you can adjust the scale and modify the configuration file's location.

You can rely on this application if you need to design trusses and test certain parameters related to them. Doing so can be accomplished easily, by setting an origin point, creating nodes, joining them by using members and applying various forces to your elements. The functions mentioned above can be accessed by either clicking their button or using the keyboard shortcuts.

After defining all the values, you can solve the truss by clicking the dedicated button from the toolbar or pressing the F6 key on your keyboard. The results are displayed in the designated field, where you can also copy them to your clipboard if needed.

As a conclusion, TrussSolver is a simple, portable application that can help you design plane trusses and test various parameters related to them. It comes with a simple user interface, easy-to-access functions and features hotkey support for most of its functions.
