Structural Property Calculator on iPad/iPhone using Pythonista
# General use as a numerical calculator calc > a = 3 calc > b = 4 calc > c=(a**2+b**2)**0.5 # white space does not matter calc > a 3.0 calc > b 4.0 calc > c 5.0 calc > 5 + (30 * 3 ** 2) – 23/46 274.5 # Use with structural properties […]
AISC Bolt Shear — C Coefficient
ASCE 7-16 Kzt Calculation — with Chart
ESC = 2D Escarpment R2D = 2D Ridge H3D = 3D Hill
Interface — Easier Slider Access
One slider at a time: On the left side of the screen is a column of labels, Precisely under each label is an invisible button, The invisible button responds to a tap by the user, In response, a single slider is activated, Clear and intuitive! See screenshot sequence below Use the GESTURE DOWN swipe to […]
Calculated examples — AISC Bolt Shear
AISC Bolt Shear Capacity — Improved UI
Better UI feedback, for: Last altered slider – label font is red All other altered sliders – label font is blue Unaltered sliders – label font is black Changed text for CHART button Added SCREENSHOT button Added RESET button
AISC Bolt Shear Capacity (with video)
See updated UI. See VIDEO link. Works on iPhone or iPad Added ‘choice lists’ to the custom augmented slider class For example, the AISC hole type selection is based on a ‘choice list’. The charts are live overlays Plots capacity of all plates where 0.25″ <= PL_THK <= 2″ See whats-on-the-pythonista-menu-yep-sliders link. See sliders-in-pythonista link. […]
What’s on the Pythonista menu? Yep, sliders! Side dish of booleans, integers and floats
I built this app and am running this app on my iPad. Credit to: mikaelho / pythonista – gestures tdamdouni / Pythonista Pythonista / slider / SliderWithLabel_danrcook.py The video shows an app with 8 inputs — 2 integer, 4 float, 2 boolean. Numeric input is tedious — at best; slider input is easier and offers positive feedback. In this […]
ASCE 7-16 Ice Loading using Pythonista 10/2018
The Pythonista UI makes development easy — almost fun See video link. I built this app and am running this app on my iPhone. I also built a version for my iPad — simple to accommodate. User can: Filter and select from ~2000 standard AISC shapes Calculate ice weight for any type of AISC shape at […]
