Bridge Building App

[laneyoung]

Has anyone used any good iPad/iPhone iOS apps that will (at a basic level) allow you to input a bridge design and then do some stress testing? It's ok if it costs some money.

Here's a link to a website that lets the user make different designs and apply loads. It's not a tablet app, but it gets the job done.

Model smart 3D is a very good program, but takes a while to master it.
They used to have a student price.

Formerly called the West Point Bridge Designer, I've worked with some of the older versions. Not an app (download on Windows or Mac) but pretty cool to play around with.
