 From a Professional Standpoint...
“This product is awesome! Both the idea of
implementing Roark in Excel as well as how
UTS has done it are brilliant. No engineer
should be without it.”

 From a Professional Standpoint...
“As a TK Solver / Roark user of nearly two decades, I am
very impressed to see that Roark's formulas is now
presented as a robust “plug and play” module within Excel.

Just select the model(s) you want, select the parameters of

interest, solve and then click to produce a well presented
report that clearly and accurately presents the data in a
coherent and understandable form for your peers.

If a picture paints a thousand words, then Roark's Formulas

for Excel solves a million Engineering problems. I look
forward to using it alongside my regular finite element stress
analysis software and actual mechanical testing as a
confidence booster to give accurate engineering judgement
and results.”

 From a Professional Standpoint...
“UTS looks like they have another winner on their hands.
First they merged one of the most popular engineering
references with TK Solver’s backsolving capability
to create Interactive Roark’s Formulas for TK Solver. It is
an application that simplifies an engineer’s life immensely.
I can’t count the hours it has saved me from re–creating
spreadsheets from a textbook.

Now, UTS has done it again. They’ve taken the same

powerful application and wrapped it in arguably the most
widely used engineer's tool… amazing. UTS continues to
be the best kept secret in the engineering software world.”
