- BridgeBeam was originally written by Dennis Eastwood, VICROADS Design Department for BHP Integrated Steel Division to aid engineers in the design of composite steel I-beams. The program was amended for HERA New Zealand to bring it in line with AS 5100.6-2004 – Bridge Design. With HERA’s support, the original DOS version was converted to Windows by SESOC in 2015 (V3.2W), and then updated in line with the 2017 edition of AS/NZS 5100.6 in 2020.
