I’ve been spending some personal time exploring the ETABS API and building a small standalone UI using Python to see how structural analysis models can be inspected and interacted with programmatically. The goal isn’t to replace ETABS, but to treat the model as a data source that can be queried, filtered, and visualized outside the native interface. Shown here: API-based extraction of framing elements, interactive visualization, and early section-level inspection hooks. Still very much a work in progress, but a useful exploration of more transparent, extensible structural workflows. (Demonstration uses generic models and independently written code.) #StructuralEngineering #ETABS #Python #API
