7. Teaching Tips (For Professors/Tutors)
- Start with 2D frames – teach P-Delta and buckling before 3D.
- Use symmetry – model half building to reduce joints.
- Assign "Limit Check" assignment – students must report joint count.
- Show comparison – run same small model in Student vs. Pro (lab computer) to highlight API/printing differences.
- Common student error: Accidentally creating fine mesh on slabs → explodes joint count → lock model.
- Graduate thesis requiring ≥3 story building (would be rejected)
- Journal article on seismic design (lacks pushover/P-delta)
- Real project or consulting report (violates license terms)
- Any model with >100 joints or >2 stories
