Welcome to ENERCALC 3D Training! ENERCALC 3D is a powerful and versatile 3D structural analysis and design program with extensive capabilities. Its functionality is intuitive and easy to learn, and the purpose of this training is to make it even easier and faster to master. A quick glance down through the table of contents shows that the training will start out by introducing the graphical user interface. It will then cover some basic theory on modeling by introducing the entities that are available to model with in ENERCALC 3D. Please refer to the ENERCALC 3D documentation for product specifications, system requirements, installation instructions, etc. This training is intended for licensed practicing professional engineers and architects, or professionals in training. It assumes that the trainee has a working knowledge of structural analysis and design, and is generally familiar with the basic operation of Windows-based programs. While this training will serve to familiarize you with the general operation of the software, it is not intended to replace the user's manual, nor is it intended to serve as a training in the field of structural analysis, structural design, code application, etc. All information offered is in support of ENERCALC software systems. No information shall be considered as professional consulting related to the provider’s professional registrations or affiliations. ![](https://3750289988-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FlRZtG5Ynp58kYzLHYbR7%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-0dad28370bbf1d48497da2315e609e85a92f1179%2FFrame%20Code%20Check.jpg?alt=media) --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.enercalc.com/e3d-training-manual/readme.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
