RC Beam Design with ProtaStructure the design of reinforced concrete (RC) beams is a critical step in ensuring the safety and durability of structures. Following building codes like CP65 is essential to ensure that beams can withstand bending, shear, and torsional stresses. Engineers must accurately determine the quantity and pattern of reinforcement bars (rebars) to enhance the structural integrity of beams while optimizing material usage.

ProtaStructure, an all-in-one structural engineering software, simplifies this process and delivers efficient solutions. The software provides a comprehensive range of tools for RC beam design, including batch and interactive design features. It also allows for rebar patterns that align with the design code you follow.
