Statics Tutor Forged Tools

Statics Tutor

Edit a statics problem as JSON and watch the reactions, member forces, and shear–moment diagrams — with worked step-by-step solutions — recompute live in your browser. Under the hood: a JSON model, a pure-JS solver, and a reactive SVG viewer — no build step, no server.

Interactive demos

Guided Walkthrough new

Pick from 5 truss and 6 beam problems and click through the engine-generated worked solution, with per-step canvas highlighting and narration.

Truss Analysis Problem Set

Six problems: method of joints and method of sections, zero-force detection, live-editable diagrams.

Shear & Moment — Problem Set

Six curated beam problems with authored worked steps: point, distributed, and couple loads, with piecewise V(x)/M(x) and hover scrubbing.

Shear & Moment — Live Editor

The same six beams, but the worked steps regenerate as you edit: change a load or support and the full solution rebuilds live.

Mixed Review

MCQs, joints, sections, and shear–moment in one set, each with a full worked solution.

3D Space Trusses (experimental)

Determinate space-truss solver with an orbitable 3D viewer.

Author Your Own
