Welcome to VirtualTrebuchet!

VirtualTrebuchet is a web based trebuchet simulator that will allow you to quickly evaluate different trebuchets. No download required.

  1. To begin, enter the specifications of your trebuchet in the input boxes on the left.
  2. Next, press the submit button located under the inputs.
  3. Finally, watch your trebuchet go.

If you would like to get more accurate results, choose Advanced Mode. Advanced Mode will give you more inputs to fill in.

If you need an explanation for anything, simply select the input box next to it, and a description will appear.

If you have any comments or suggestions of how to improve this website, or if you have any questions, contact me at:

If you have built a trebuchet or are planning to build a trebuchet please contact me. I am trying to gather more real world data to further validate and improve this simulation.
