Structural Steel Design Spreadsheets 1

[Ramiyazje]

I was Browsing the net for Structural Steel Design Spreadsheets to British Standards. I found few but I thought of asking if you came across any?

Have you tried

http://www.XCALCS.com?

Yoo haven't indicated which spreadsheets you have found. Generally, the free spreadsheets aren't very good, but a few have good ideas and algorithms for generating your own. I have found that companies are reluctant to share for mostly legal reasons.
Also, have you tried "Advanced" keyword search on this website?
I am in the USA, and am currently developing my own Excell.

Interesting websites...but I am looking for a method (using Excell) to design continuous beams with "real-life" complex loading capability. It was done about 1983, when Enercalc came out with its Lotus-123 based structural design package. I am guessing that they used a stiffness matrix solver.
