Field notes

Users can start from simply supported, cantilever, portal-frame, gable-frame or continuous-beam examples, then edit nodes, members, supports and loads directly. The interface plots axial force, shear, bending moment and normal stress; section values can be inspected along a member. Models can be saved as .bendcheck.json files, with browser-local drafts when storage is available. The stated model excludes local stress concentrations at joints.
