Hello everyone,
I'm looking for a good (low-cost... prefereably no-cost) moment of inertia calculator routine for autocad. Does anyone know of one?

I'm working with 2D drawings, and the only way I was able to get moments of inertia was to make a 3D model from them, and do massprops...
however, now that IFRs showed me the missing "region" step, I'm all set!
THANKS!!!

Another handy thing to know is how to subtract one region from another for when you have a hollow section. This is found in the Modify menu. I generally cross hatch the final section to check out if I did it right.
Modify->Regions->Subtract
