While this website will mostly focus on items in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) field, I figured I could start with posting about how I made this website.

This website was created with the Django framework (a term I just learned throughout this process). It seems to be popular among those in the python community and I learned about it from being a part of the local python club here in Utah. 

I started on this project on July 1st of 2021, the day my wife started up her night float rotation in the hospital. She works crazy hours during this rotation and I figured now would be the best time to start to learn web development.  I had (2) months to do the heavy lifting before the wife returned home. The heavy lifting of the project was completed today, August 23rd; a 54 day project. I would estimate that I spent ~ 2 hours a night working on this website bringing my total time to build this website to around 100 hours. 

In retrospect, I wish I would have gone with a preconfigured blog website like wordpress or wix; but I learned a ton thorough this process. Terms like "sudo," "nano," and "linux" "databases" all mean something to me now. I know the basics of how to configure a linux machine; how to setup website domains etc.

The process has been fun. Stay tuned! (I clearly need to add a spell check to my text editor as well; it is kind of ugly how many misspelled words I see)

    Thanks Trenno.

    I will work to get metric units incorporated, that's a great idea.

    On your second point, I think something like that could be done, it's just a bit awkward with how CSI currently has it setup. In order to make section cuts, I need to unlock the model, ...

  • Trenno on Diaphragm Slicer New and Improved -

    Awesome work S&T!

    Firstly, I'd recommend if you're going to feature the tool on CSI's website then maybe incorporate metric units (aka real units!) 

    Secondly, I'm wondering if there would be a way to set up the workflow using something akin to RAM Concept design strips. Perhaps the strip width ...

  • e95kwon on Transfer Diaphragm Design -

    My understanding is that for a 5-story building you would have:

    • (1) load case A (ELF)
    • (1) load case B for each level except the roof so total (4)
    • therefore (4) load combos for diaphragm design

    I believe the intent is to envelope higher mode actions as you mentioned ...
