Phase 2 will be completed during 2021 and available near the endof the calendar year.As structural steel design often comes in the beginning of students’ experience in structural design.Typically, there is a bit of a learning curve surrounding how design problems are approached. So,some initial applets are aimed at orienting the students’ view around building plans and flow offorces. Then, the typical flow of topics is tension members, connections, compression members,beams, and combined axial and bending. In addition, the later applets will cover some

Not really; these types of techniqueswere in use at the United States Military Academy and nearly every other engineering institutionat the beginning of the 20th century (Figure 1).
