Best android apps for Civil Engineers!

Here are some of the best android apps for Civil Engineers. If you are a Civil Engineer, I highly recommend you to install these apps.  You will be able to save significant amount of time in your professional life. And the best part is these apps are all free.

Share these “Best android apps for Civil Engineers” with your friends too. These apps are way too brilliant to save your time and make your work productive. 


1) Autodesk® AutoCAD 360:

Autodesk® AutoCAD 360 is the official AutoCAD® mobile app. This is an official version of Autocad you are using in your PC. It is a free drawing and drafting mobile app which allows you to view, edit, and share AutoCAD drawings anytime, anywhere. It is by far the best Drawing and drafting app in play store. Every civil Engineer must own this app. Though editing on small screens may be little awkward but viewing and reviewing of drawings can be done with ease even in small screen.

Here are some screenshots of Autodesk® AutoCAD 360.

2) Autodesk ForceEffect:

Autodesk ForceEffect is a android app for Civil Engineers to simulate designed concepts in the field or in the office. This app is combination of pen, pencil, papers and calculator. Autodesk ForceEffect does all the simulations. Even engineering calculations will be done for you right on your mobile device. It helps you to quickly and easily simulate designs.Here are some screenshots of this app.

3) AndTruss2D:

AndTruss2D is one of the useful apps for civil engineers. AndTruss2D is mostly used for linear static analysis of plane trusses with the Finite Element Method. This app shows Graphical and textual results of axial forces and stress. You are provided with 20 truss templates which will make your work even faster. Just enter the truss, force and other effects such as deformation and temperature effects, You will get your truss solved within seconnds. After the truss is solved you get the Animated Deformations of the truss. 

Here are some screenshots of AndTruss2D.

4) BeamDesign:

BeamDesign is app developed by letsconstruct. Beam design uses finite element method to design continuous beam. We can input hyper static forces either graphically or textually. We can import any steel profile or general section from our free Engineering Libraries (EU, UK, AU, US & CA profiles) too. This app is feature rich. You can export its result to concrete design app which is app developed by same developer

Here are some screenshots of BeamDesign.

5) ConcreteDesign:

ConcreteDesign is an app which helps civil engineer to determine the amount of reinforcement in a concrete section for preliminary design. This app is integrated with Beamdesign. You don’t need to do lengthy calculations when you are armed with this app.
