E&F Engineering provides practical training in parametric and computational design, helping structural to use Rhino and Grasshopper to create adaptable models, explore structural design options and automate repetitive tasks.
From fundamental modelling principles to applied structural workflows, our training connects digital tools with the challenges of everyday project work. Programmes can be tailored to your team’s experience, project objectives and existing design processes.
Grasshopper Development & Troubleshooting
Develop new definitions or review and improve existing ones. Support can include debugging, data-tree management, model organisation, performance improvements and documentation for continued use by your team.
Workflow Automation & Project Tools
Develop tools for repetitive tasks such as geometry generation, quantity extraction, schedules, option comparisons and data export. Shape successful workflows into reusable tools suited to your team’s projects.
Structural Analysis Workflows & Software Integration
Support the preparation of analytical geometry and computational workflows using tools such as Karamba3D. Project-specific connections with SAP2000, ETABS, Autodesk Robot or other platforms can be scoped around the selected software and available interfaces, with agreed model checks and review responsibilities.
Design Studies & Optimisation
Explore alternative geometries, structural arrangements and member parameters against agreed criteria, such as structural response, material quantities, geometric constraints and constructability. Present comparisons that support your team’s engineering decisions.
Geometry Rationalisation & Coordination
Translate complex design geometry into controlled layouts and usable project outputs. Support coordination between structural, architectural and specialist teams as the design develops.
