Open-Source Tool
Rehoboth Fastener Calculator
An open-source desktop tool for transparent bolted-joint pre-assessment, created to help engineers inspect assumptions and compare calculation results. The tool is provided as engineering support software, not as a replacement for professional judgment.
Download
The Windows installer can be downloaded directly from the website. The source code is intended to remain open so the calculation logic can be reviewed transparently.
