Overview

As Structural Engineers adopt digital workflows, the availability of data in consumable formats becomes increasingly important. Structural design data is often captured within Excel spreadsheets, books, tables and figures, which is inconvenient from a software perspective. Moreover, mapping data from one format to another can be time-consuming and a frequent source of error. The bluebook package encapsulates the Steel for Life steel section data as a library with a stable and convenient API. The original .xlsx data files were sourced from: https://www.steelforlifebluebook.co.uk.
