Impact Loading Calculator

Calculate dynamic stress and deflection from sudden and falling weight impacts on beams and bars.

Weight of the falling object.
N
Height from which the weight falls. 0 for sudden load.
mm
Stiffness of the structure being impacted. k = F/δ.
N/mm
Stress under static application of the weight.
MPa
