pyengtoolkit (Python Engineering Toolkit)

A kit of useful python tools for everyday calculations in structural engineering journey!

How to install

You can install the library using pip (WORK IN PROGRESS):

pip install pyengtoolkit

You can choose the single structural module to use in your python files or jupyter notebooks importing with:

from pyengtoolkit.src import 'name of the package that you want to use'

List of tools available

• effective_section_concrete: calculation of effective width for T, double-T and L shaped concrete sections, based on prescriptions of Eurocode 2 (EN 1992-1-1 §5.3.2.1);
• effective_section_composite: calculation of effective width for steel-concrete sections, based on prescriptions of Eurocode 4 (EN 1994-1-1 §5.4.1.2);
• concrete_shear: list of functions that calculate shear resistance (according to EC-NTC18-NBR) and render them in LaTeX with handcalcs library;
• steel_beam: list of functions that calculate resistance and stability for steel beams (according to EC) and render them in LaTeX with handcalcs library;
• stay_cables: calculation of stay cables elastic and geometric elongations;
• PT_losses: calculation of Post-Tension Losses for prestressing steel, according to EC.
  It is possible to consider:
  • Immediate elastic shortening of Concrete
  • Friction
  • Wedge draw-in of anchorage devices
  • Shrinkage of Concrete
  • Creep of Concrete
  • Relaxation of Prestressing Steel
