Abstract
The computer aided design or CAD/CAE is an important tool for various fields of engineering design. Many design software packages are based on the finite element formulation with the element-joint concept and available in rather expensive commercial finite element software packages such as SAP2000. Unfortunately, the simple explanations and demonstrations of application of the aforementioned element-joint concept for undergraduate student are not easily available. This work intends to fill the learning gap existing between engineering mechanics and mathematics in the engineering education. It aims to develop an educational procedure for learning engineering mathematics and mechanics using a commercial finite element software and a cheaply available spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel.
