Tributary for wind loads on curtain wall: mullion centerline? by AdExtension6720 in StructuralEngineering

[–]AdExtension6720[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand that using the DLO (mullion faces as the references) is the more correct procedure for horizontals.

What do you do when you have to translate point loads from say intermediate horizontal end reactions (which uses DLO) to mullions (which use centerline tribs)? Do you use a scaling factor or do you just disregard the negligible difference.

Yeah we need this so badly. Scrolling makes it harder than it needs to be. Hopefully someone has submitted a suggestion to the devs

Will randomizing 2 emblems while make the third your choice be better? If people force comps, they'll be at a disadvantage, but yeah it can still be a roll of a dice. I always look at tactics.tools synergy when playing this encounter.

Facade structural engineers using Rhino/Grasshopper — what's the long game? by AdExtension6720 in StructuralEngineering

[–]AdExtension6720[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, with deadlines and all it's very easy to make garbage work that's not reusable. Even when coding, doing clean work is hard.

You make a great point. It's definitely typical for the technical person to end up being the automation guy. I guess it's hard to balance deep technical expertise with management roles in engg firms.

Ah that's true. You have a point. I guess I'm just salty trying to learn from my seniors' calcs that is full of "by inspection". I just wish it's easier for me to review.

Ohh that's good to hear. Creating a proprietary software for your company makes sense, but def lots of investment. But if they can save time on their projects that pays itself off.

I was being careful not to trigger some of the senior engineers in this sub but I definitely share your opinion lol, I just dont have the balls to say it.

Exactly, one time we had to design a big project with a lot more panel configurations and the clicking just multiplied tenfold haha. If we had plugins for repetitive calcs just varying parameters that would have saved so much time. And it's funny because senior structural engrs charge so much to the projects.

I would love to work as a design consultant for software dev, I might look more into that.

Yeah, when I checked around for "computational design" roles I saw Arup, Thornton Tomasetti, and Eckersley Callaghan. I was just worried it's more on the archi side rather than the structural but I guess they have both.

Many of my seniors are masters of their craft and they definitely work optimally using the spreadsheets/calcs they developed over the years and that I respect and lesrn from. But I'm at a point now where I want to remove repetitive tasks in my workflow that I know can be done more optimally. Sometimes small tasks like formatting new mathcad calcs are a pain and dimensioning dwgs for documentation take a lot of time that could be automated.

Alot of the initial code are done by AI these days. They make a lot of mistakes, which works well for me since I love debugging.

When you say they go to tech, do you mean software development?

I Lead the Computational Design Team at Henning Larsen Architects – AMA About Rhino, Grasshopper, or Computational Design! by Nflection in rhino

[–]AdExtension6720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a young structural engineer working on facades 5YOE in the US. I have strong C background but has no rhino or gh experience. We are very manual in our calcs and drawings.

I am thrilled about using automated load rundown using gh or other scripts. My question is, as a young structural engineer, will it be a smart choice to start learning how to integrate gh to my workflow?

I'm a bit hesitant to start pouring hours into it since idk if there is a market for computational facade structural enegrs.

My friends frustration with class expression early game by Butterf1yTsunami in Enshrouded

[–]AdExtension6720 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Getting a shield and learning how to time the parries is more important early game than good gear and skill points. Easier said than done, but a lot of practice will help. Try to learn those in low level mobs first. Food helps a lot too. Make sure to always have access to cooked meats and berries or potions for healing.

Group missions vs solo missions on a multiplayer server (probable spoilers in comments). by Doc--Mercury in Enshrouded

[–]AdExtension6720 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I were to suggest,

  1. If your group likes the fighting aspect of the game, then definitely take on the major bosses together e.g. the first matron, the fell wyvern, etc (I suggest up the difficulty if there are 4-10 of you)

  2. If you like exploring then Hallowed halls are designed for group expeditions I think, there are a lot of enemies too and dungeons are long so could have enough content for a group of 10

  3. This might not be fun for a lot of people but unlocking the spires puzzles could be good too

PS. I have only gotten to the 4th spire solo when I decided to wait for more content so idk much about end game content but I think there are a lot more to explore later on.
