    Hi,

    Anyone know where I can download a free section properties program. Not just for symetric/ asymmetric sections.

    Regards,
    Conor

    Are you talking about steel sections? If so you can download the blue book from the net

    I want to calculate moment of inertia, I, for a lift core and some adjoining RC walls.

    Takes some time with a calculator and pad......

    I've used the free plugin for google SketchUp called SectionPropertiesCalculator it will calculate the centroid of any shape and moments of inertia as well as some other geometric properties.
    This is the site to download it www.skpengineering.com
