TIRED OF WORRYING ABOUT YOUR PROFITABILITY?
YOU NEED AN ASET (pronounced "Ay-set").
An ASET is an Automated Structural Engineering Toolkit. ASETs allow you to orchestrate-and-execute bulk engineering tasks across whole jobs, dropping your internal project costs.
ASETs ARE NEW AND EXPERIMENTAL. I AM LOOKING FOR QUALIFIED STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS WHO WANT TO GAIN A COMPETITIVE EDGE.
Click the button below to get your FREE 17-Minute Python Jump-Start for building your own ASETs.
You will get:
- 4-minute Python install: Hyper-modern installation that accelerates ASET building
- My personal Python engineering environment: Tuned on billable engineering work - everything you need in one place.
- The "Chaining" Technique: The hidden technique that makes ASET building possible (it's like the Flux Capacitor for ASETs).
DO YOU QUALIFY FOR THIS EXPERIMENT?
THERE is A BETTER WAY
You can engineer differently
Does This Sound Like You?
As an engineer, you can sense that there is a better way of working, can't you?
- Do you feel like... you are spending your days copy-pasting and jockeying spreadsheet cells?
- Does it seem... like the time you spend doing actual "engineering" is only a tiny fraction of your day?
- Are you frustrated that... technology advances seem to apply to other fields but never to structural engineering?
- And when it comes down to it, doesn't it seem like... there is just not enough time in the day to do things differently?
You already have the technical ability.
You just need the system to organize it.
CASE STUDY
Daniel Ki
P.E. (NY), S.E. (NV)
Dan came to Structural Python already confident in his programming skills. Dan had even learned how to do fast text editing with the programming editor called Neovim. He had all of the programming knowledge already but there was one thing that Dan was missing.
Once he learned this one thing, the "structure" that he talks about in this video, everything started taking off for him. The incredible time savings that he knew were possible finally became a reality.
WHO AM I?
Hi! My name is
Connor Ferster, P. Eng.
I am a structural engineer, like you, with a little bit of a different background.
Most engineers make the decision to become engineers early on in their life and sometimes leave the profession to do other things.
I started off doing other things and then went back to school later in life. I spent my 30s becoming an engineer and got licensed at 42 making me, by far, the oldest EIT in our office.
Being older, I took a course outside of my degree to learn a skill I have always wanted: computer programming (in Python). It changed my life and I saw vast possibility.
In the engineering office, I could see the advantage in using Python and I decided to teach Python to my colleagues.
However, despite knowing Python, I was still working mad-overtime to get jobs out. Simply, "knowing Python" was not enough to get jobs out faster.
Slowly, the concept of the ASET started to come to me and, when I applied it, things started to change for me.
Now, I am fine-tuning the practice of ASET building to make it fast-and-accessible to engineers who do not have months to invest in long training programs.

ENGINEERING TOOLS
I am an author, or official maintainer, on several of the most popular open-source engineering tools. New tools are continually being published by Structural Python.
Handcalcs and Forallpeople
Handcalcs renders engineering calculations as though you wrote them by hand. It pairs with forallpeople, enabling units-aware calculations.
sectionproperties
Authored by Robbie van Leeuwen, sectionproperties enables elastic, plastic, and warping analysis of arbitrary composite sections.
PyniteFEA
Authored by D. Craig Brinck, PyniteFEA is an easy-to-use and efficient 3D FEA tool for both linear and some non-linear analysis.
QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE
My training methods always assume that the designer, you, is starting from zero. Being an engineer, you already have a strong technical background, which means I can quickly show you "this is a variable" and "this is a function" and you can grasp these concepts quickly. This means that even if you are a beginner, yeah, you got this.
Even engineers who have already learned a bit of programming and Python feel more confident with a refresher before jumping into the ASET techniques so I never assume existing programming or Python knowledge. This means no one is left "stuck" or "hanging" because something is left un-explained.
So, yes, this for you and you are in the right place!
You are a perfect candidate for this training. If you have already "slayed the dragon" of engineering-time-wasteage and you are commanding high margins on all of your jobs then you would not be reading this right now.
- You may have learned how to use Pynite already. Cool, I will show you how to make it fast-and-production-ready.
- You may have learned about handcalcs and Jupyter already. Cool, I will show you how you can make a drag-and-drop system of your existing calc sheets.
- You may have learned about Quarto already. Cool, I will grant you access to the engineering notes template that every engineer wants (and no engineer has).
So, yes, this is for you and you are in the right place!
No matter what kind of structural engineering sub-discipline you fall under, if perform any/all of the following tasks then my techniques will probably work for you:
- Build-and-execute 2D or 3D elastic FE models of structures
- Perform capacity calculations by some method
- Execute design engineering jobs from beginning to end
In short, if you are a design engineer of any kind who is the person who is actually doing the work, then it matters less of what you design. What matters is that you are experiencing the struggles of design engineering, regardless of the structure type.
