This spreadsheet is simplistic in comparison to commercial software and much more limited in capabilities, but is completely adequate for many structural building frame-type problems. The user is provided with a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that solves FE two dimensional (2D) frame-type structural engineering problems. This online engineering PDH course combines the two into a FE spreadsheet that puts the power of FE method into the versatility of a spreadsheet. Finite element software and spreadsheet software are two essential tools for structural engineers. Conventional thinking is that Finite Element (FE) analysis is complex and requires expensive commercial software. This online engineering PDH course demonstrates how to perform Finite Element Structural Analysis on an Excel Spreadsheet.
