Structural Engineering Calculation Software
Academia
Today’s engineering students learn in an environment where computer-based analysis is the norm. While this technology offers tremendous efficiency, it also makes it more important than ever to build a solid understanding of structural mechanics.
ENERCALC believes it is imperative that engineering students be well educated in the very roots of structural mechanics and have extensive hand-calculation knowledge of structural engineering.
Only by the repeated “torture” of continually performing hand calculations can one build the engineering intuition that is essential to understand the factors that contribute to sound structural design… a task that at its very basis is needed to protect human life.
Most universities are developing their curriculum to educate students in both hand calculations and computer technology. This combined approach strengthens learning: students can compare their hand calculations with software output, understand why the two might differ, and occasionally even discover that they have proved the computer wrong! In this way, software supports and reinforces the fundamentals rather than replacing them.
At ENERCALC we would like our software to assist the engineers of tomorrow with their educational pursuits. In support of this we offer an academic license. University professors may submit a request and we will provide unlock codes so that the software will work for the term of the class and display user information for the school, professor and class term. These licenses can be shared with the professor’s students and will work for the academic term provided. We currently have over 40 civil / structural engineering university engineering departments using these licenses.
Academic licenses may be granted for a specific class term. Applications are offered to professors and instructors only.
