some of the non-engineering related issues like programming. Because
the site is in a "beta" phase I set it up so you have to create an
account to both view and contribute content.
For those who are interested in contributing you can go to
StructuralPedia.com and sign up. The site is populated with some
content already, but it is essentially a blank slate.
There are several types of content that can be contributed, all of
which should not be copyright protected material. Some people could
contribute the body of the entry or simply upload images or pdf's to
supplement the entry. Other important contributions are links to
other resources and proper citation of content.
