META Calculator: Geometry, Mechanics, Volume, Weight & Surfaces! [for iOS]

The META Calculator is an extremely flexible tool designed for students, engineers, architects & other tradesmen.

New video demo: http://bit.ly/METAVideo

The app computes, for many common shapes & in real time, their Geometrical, Mechanical, Volume, Weights & Surface properties.

The current version contain 23 section shapes, for which 21 properties are obtained in real time.

One of the features that sets the META Calculator apart from other mobile tools: 100% flexible units! You can mix the input and output at you own will! Input a thickness in inches or millimeters, length in feet, yards or meters, unit weight in pci, pcf or kg/m^3.

Output can be customized as well at your heart's will. Set Inertias to in^4 or cm^4, weight per unit length in lbs or Kg, total weight in tons or tonnes! Just tap the label for the output in the expandable output list and it will cycle throughout the available units.

All units are remembered accordingly until changed or the application if reset from the info page.

You can also use the bundled Gauge Picker to select any dimension among 15 international Gauge Standard.

There is also a user-editable materials database from which many common materials can be selected.
