Awaiting source
Illustrative example — not a calculation result.
Validated against published standards

Every active check is guarded by a hand-computed benchmark derived from the published clause equations.

  • AISC — American Institute of Steel Construction
  • European Commission — Eurocode
  • DNV
  • Standards Australia

Traceable formulas

Every check declares the source it comes from. Anything without a verified basis is labelled, never silently computed.

Transparent assumptions

The assumptions behind a result sit next to the result — in the interface and in the report.

Governing-check clarity

One clear governing result with its utilisation, not a wall of numbers to interpret yourself.

Professional PDF reports

Reports carry inputs, checks, sources, assumptions, scope, and revision metadata — ready for the project file.

The workspace

This is the real tool — not a mock-up.

A live screenshot of the lifting lug calculator: schematic with orthographic views, every check with its source basis, and cross-checks from other methodology families side by side.

Workflow

From inputs to a defensible report, with nothing hidden in between.

  1. 01

    Enter the design basis

    Geometry, materials, loads, and design basis — in SI or US customary units, with the units attached to every value.

  2. 02

    Review every check

    Each check shows demand, capacity, and utilisation. The governing result is called out, not hidden in a table.

  3. 03

    Inspect sources and scope

    Open the source basis, assumptions, and out-of-scope triggers behind any result before you rely on it.

  4. 04

    Export the report

    A professional PDF with the full check trail — or share the exact calculation state as a link.

The report

A report another engineer can actually review.

Every export carries the complete check trail: inputs, per-check demand and capacity, the governing result, source references, assumptions, warnings, and revision metadata. Nothing is reduced to an unexplained number.

  • Source traceability on every check
  • Assumptions and scope stated in full
  • Governing check and overall utilisation
  • Project, revision, and engine-version metadata

Trust, in practice

Built so you can check our work.

How formulas are sourced
A check is implemented only when its formula can be traced to a verified basis — a named standard clause supplied for validation, or a public-domain mechanics identity. Until then it is shown as awaiting source, never silently computed.
How scope is handled
Each calculator declares out-of-scope triggers. When your configuration falls outside the validated scope, the tool says so — no result is inferred.
How engines are tested
Calculation engines are pure functions covered by unit tests, dual-unit invariance checks, and benchmark validation cases run on every change.
What remains with the engineer
Xarpis is a preliminary design and verification tool. Responsibility for the design — including whether FEA or independent review is required — remains with the engineer.
How changes are tracked
Every report records the engine version that produced it, and methodology pages document the source basis each calculator relies on.
