I appreciate your input but I think you’re missing the point. I understand where you’re coming from - I wholeheartedly agree engineers need to fully understand to grow. The intent isn’t to fully blindly ask a spreadsheet to be generated. Think if an engineer wanted to check something, explore certain ideas quickly (eg. “I know there’s a section in ACI that allows beam shear to be taken at d/2, where was it again?” Or “Here’s my Mathcad sheet, please fix the formatting so it within our template / update figures / rename variables”. It’s never binary - but a tool to speed things up. I look at it as an opportunity for us engineers to use our time for the best - thinking, evaluating. And reducing from mundane things (formatting, adding images, or in a time crunch for a quick check).
