Structural analysis, live, as you sketch your design.

Drag your design to watch reaction and member forces update live
Professional parametric sketching, right in your browser
Solve determinate and indeterminate mechanisms and structures

Real Engineering Analysis. Live in Your Browser.

ForceCanvas combines an intuitive drawing canvas with real-time solving to turn your structures into live engineering models that update as you work, right in your browser.

Forces Solve as You Draw, Update as You Drag

No recalculate button. No waiting. Forces, reactions, and stability update the instant you make any change and re-solve live as you move your structure.

Parametric Constraints, Like Real CAD

Sketch with lengths, angles, coincident points... The same constraint types in professional CAD, running live in your browser. Under/over-constraint detection included.

Faster Design Iteration, Live Insights

Drag your mechanism through its full range of motion and watch where forces peak. Iterate quickly by adjusting dimensions and seeing the results update live.

Mechanisms, Trusses, Frames, and Beams. One Canvas

Statics problems or analyzing full mechanisms, ForceCanvas classifies your structure and solves it correctly. Determinate and indeterminate both handled.

Interactive Canvas

Draw engineering structures like trusses, frames, and machines naturally. Watch as ForceCanvas instantly calculates the results.

  • Draw beams, supports, loads, and moments
  • Dimension sketches with CAD-like constraints
  • Choose between fixed or free joints with a simple click
  • Live force calculations and visualization
