347 independently verified
benchmark cases.
Across 17 of Enginus's 19 calculators, checked against published code tables, hand-derived first-principles calculations, real named worked examples, and independent audit-verified benchmarks — not just "the code runs without crashing."
Last audited 2026-09-06. This is a live count of current test coverage, not a certification — see "What this isn't" below.
What counts as “verified” here
Every calculator on Enginus has a benchmark test suite that runs its actual underlying formulas against known values before that code ships. We went through all of them — every file, every individual check — and separated genuine independent verification from internal software testing that doesn't belong in a claim like this one.
A published code table
EN 1992-1-1 Table 3.1, EN 1997-1 Annex D, EN 14080:2013, ACI 318 tables, ASCE 7's published load-combination coefficients, EC6's masonry formulas, and others — the calculator's output is checked directly against the number the standard itself publishes.
A hand-derived first-principles calculation
Worked out independently — by hand or in a standalone script — from the governing formula, without calling the calculator's own code, then hardcoded as the expected value.
A real, named worked example
Classic textbook problems with known published answers — like the Hibbeler/Kassimali Pratt truss below — reproduced through the actual calculator engine.
An independent audit-verified benchmark
A specific worked example whose result was independently confirmed during a dedicated code-quality audit of that calculator, separate from its everyday test suite.
A sample, not the full list
14 representative cases pulled directly from the real benchmark files, values exactly as computed. The full set lives in each calculator's own __tests__/*.bench.ts file in the codebase.

Coverage varies by calculator
Some calculators have a long, mature benchmark history; others are newer or don't yet have an independent verification suite of their own. Shown honestly, including the zeros.
Truss Analysis and Frame Analysis also share a stiffness-method math engine (steelAxial.ts for member buckling/tension capacity, matrix.ts for the linear solve) with 18 more independently-verified cases underneath both tools, not counted in either calculator's own total above.
What this isn't
As always: Enginus supports engineering calculation and preliminary design workflows. Final engineering decisions, verification and professional responsibility remain with the project engineer.
