ExcelCalcs Lego-Like Way to Engineering

Like a child selecting parts to construct a Lego model engineers bring together blocks of science to create new designs. These building blocks could be a load calculation, a beam calculation, a weld calculation, a fatigue calculation or any other calculation from a myriad of engineering topics. As...

iPhone, Android and Mobile Device Access

The site is optimised for browsing on mobile devices like the iPhone or Android phones. To create a web app icon browse to http://www.excelcalcs.com/navigate/ and ‘Add to Home Screen’. You will find an icon much like an app icon on your home screen which will bring you straight back...

ExcelCalcs Trailblazers

I have been chasing up feedback from new users signing up to XLC Pro accounts in the last month. I am delighted with their positive feedback. “I started using XLC but I am now insisting that my whole team use the add-in .“ “It is a great tool for validation and pres...

Increasing Engineering Confidence

Engineering training - “I run a team of engineers and whilst there are plenty of soft options for training expounding the latest management techniques there is precious little to develop the engineering skills of my team”. This is a familiar story we hear from clients of our trai...

Join our Corporate Partners Scheme

You are probably familiar with our tools of mass knowledge distribution on our website but ExcelCalcs also works more closely with corporate partners providing engineering training and engineering consultancy services. What’s more these services and ExcelCalcs subscriptions are availa...

Introducing ExcelCalcs eFormulas

ExcelCalcs eFormulas aims to replace traditional engineering formula books providing innovative functionality to copy from our webpages and paste directly into Excel. Once in Excel it is easily edited to suit your own problems this functionality is far more flexible than 'stuck on the web'&n...

Deciphering Spreadsheets with XLC

At some time or other you will have been given someone else’s spreadsheet only to be left scratching your head not having a clue as to what the calculation is doing.  If you are wise you will not use it because you can’t understand it. If you are wiser still you’ll use our...

Make Amazing Calculations

In our good calculation guide we emphasise the importance of sketches in calculations but you can produce interactive 3D wireframe sketches by incorporating Turan Babacan’s latest upload. Turan uses 3D charts to great effect in his Excel FEM programs. Andy Pope also has a 3D chart spr...

Coming Soon XLC Ribbon

A new version of XLC is in the final stages of development which will be compatible with the 64 bit version of Excel 2010 (currently it works with the 32 bit version of Excel 2010, 2007 2003 and 2000). We’ll keep you posted with progress. Please send us details of any features you ...

WARNING TO ALL ENGINEERS

WARNING TO ALL ENGINEERS Engineers regularly encode formulas from their engineering text books into Excel worksheets. Unfortunately Excel formulas don’t look too much like the equations they are copying and it is all too easy to make mistakes. On average one cell formula is incorrect for every 20 formulas entered. Everyone uses Excel so imagine how many mistakes Engineers are making in every organisation and in every country across the globe.  The problem is enormous but easily remedied.

Use the XLC add-in for Excel to generate mathematical equations direct from cell formulas as a double check back to the text book equation. It makes Excel into an engineer’s calcpad producing verifiable and traceable calculations suitable for publication in engineering reports.  It takes no extra time to make calculations using XLC and can be learned in less than one hour following video tutorials. What’s more we make a version of the software available for free.

I genuinely believe that every engineer should install XLC to make a significant improvement to the quality and integrity of engineering calculations. Please forward this to any engineer you know.

Repository News

A new version of XLC is available but the only significant change is expiration date which only affects XLC trial subscribers and not XLC Pro or XLC Ed subscribers. For XC Trial subscribers the current version of the software will expire on 30th April 2011 and they will have to download and install the new version. We do this as a reminder to trial users that we rely on the support of paid subscribers in the hope that they might also choose to support us with a paid subscription too. That said they are welcome to continue using the free XLC trial subscription. Alex Tomanovich continues to support his work with two further updates. We are spending some time improving the download pages of some of Alex's older calculations for the site. Alex has been uploading calculations before we introduced our zooming graphics calculation previews and we want to do our best to show off Alex's amazing collection of engineering calculations. I'm enjoying revisiting his older calculations reminding myself just how great all his work is. WilfredL  adds a deep bored pile foundation calculation to his increasing collection of civil engineering calculations. Othetherington makes his debut calculation which covers disc spring design (Bellville washers). Docapri updates his splendid Angle section properties calculation. We are always happy to receive new calculations for the repository – How about adding one of your own?

Mechanical Handler Mechanical handler calculations in MS Excel using the XLC add-in from ExcelCalcs.com. This calculation can be used to optimise ram sizes, lifting capacity, boom dimensions or use the same model to assess a series of model sizes.

Fatigue of Welded Structures Course - This course uses real world case studies to understand the engineering principles governing fatigue failure of welded structures. We reduce complex mathematics to simple hand calculations using Excel workbooks so that engineers at all levels can understand the concepts covered. Engineers will leave understanding how to apply the AWS rules for fatigue design and will pick up new engineering and Excel skills along the way.
