AISC v15.0 Shapes Database # NOTE # For enhanced readability and easier translation to other software, # exponents are indicated with the (mathematically) traditional caret symbol. # In Python, replace all carets with a double asterisk. # Get single angle properties a = np.arctan(my_angle.TANA) c = np.cos(a) s = np.sin(a) b = my_angle.B_LOWERCASE d = […]

Structural Property Calculator — Improved
# calc> ddet(..w8x31) # not case sensitive 8.0 # # On assignment, now, the calculator # returns __str__(object) # the string representation of the object # # Therefore, # On assignment of an AISC shape the calculator # returns __str__(shape) # the string representation of the shape # calc > a = ..w8x31 # not […]
Python — Nested Ifs
NESTED IFs: A question was asked recently on Stack Overflow The solution shown below is readable, scalable, easily edited — and contains no IF statements. This is similar to the method proposed by Anitoliy R except I use a single string and the split function to simplify editing and scaling. To illustrate scalability, I add […]
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. […]
