Hydraulic Power Calculator

(FREE, .zip 7kb)

This is a very small application that allows you to calculate the effective hydraulic power of a pump. You can make calculations based on the delivery in litres per minute, or the displacement in cubic centimetres per second or cubic centimetres per revolution. This program is offered freely, but is offered 'as-is' with no warranty or guarantees that it will meet your needs.

Traffic Update Application

(FREE, .exe 2.1Mb)

This is a small application written some time ago as a means of getting real time UK traffic information onto a desktop. To work it will require an internet connection be established - no internet connection = no traffic information! Although the program works it was never really completed and as such is offered freely here "as-is", but has no warranty or guarantees that it will work on your particular system. Also, the RSS feed the program uses only provides traffic information for England.

Method Statement Generator

(FREE, .zip 25kb)

This is a Microsoft Word template that demonstrates some simple automation of a document. It allows you to create a professional and comprehensive method statement with a minimal amount of input. Macros must be enabled for this application to work, and this version has no company information or logo on the cover sheet. We will happily customise this template with your information for free, but in exchange would only ask that you allow us to send you our newsletter by email (currently we issue a newsletter every quarter). This program is offered freely, but is offered 'as-is' with no warranty or guarantees that it will meet your needs or satisfy local legal requirements.
