DIGITAL LIBRARY - PART I
COMPLIMENTARY COPY TO THE FIRST 25 PEOPLE TO EMAIL US! 

SE University is pleased to announce a new Digital Library as an addition to our growing online SEU Resource Center. This Library contains links to published technical documents including Codes, Manuals, Articles, and Design Aids to serve as a resource for structural engineers. Our goal is to provide rapid access to commonly used technical documents. 

The first part of the Digital Library document is now available. The topics in this first section include: 

BIM/Structural Software 

Checklists 

Codes

Cold-Formed Steel

SE University is continually adding to our Resource Center, and we hope you are finding  ...read the full article on the SE University Blog 

COORDINATION CHECKLISTS FOR STAIR AND ELEVATOR DESIGN 

Over the last month, SE University has been working with Cathleen Jacinto, SE, PE, (pictured at right) to expand the technical content available to SE University subscribers. Cathleen is the author of the "Digital Library (Part I)," the first article in today's newsletter.  

In addition to the Digital Library (Part I), Cathleen has compiled the following checklists:

Coordination Checklist for Stair Design

Do you have a multistory project where you'll be involved in the design of the stairs? Would it be helpful to have a document that could help you define the scope of your design with the architect and owner, and identify key items in the design process? With input from practicing structural engineers, SE University has compiled a Coordination Checklist for Stair Design to assist structural engineers in their coordination with architects and owners during the design phase. 

This checklist serves as a starting point for your design coordination efforts related to stair design. Included are items related to ... read the full article on the SE University Blog

Coordination Checklist for Elevator Design 

Do you have a project with an elevator? Would you like a checklist to help you in considering the several coordination aspects that contribute to elevator design? With the help of an elevator consultant, SE University has compiled a Coordination Checklist to assist structural engineers in their coordination with architects and elevator consultants during the design phase.

From elevator clearances and loading to structural detailing, this Elevator Checklist serves as an overall starting point for your design coordination efforts.

The Checklist is divided into 4 Sections:

                                   A.  Elevator Geometry and Clearances
                                   B.  Elevator Design Loads
                                   C.  Elevator Structural Analysis
                                   D.  Elevator Structural Drawings and Detailing
