The famous formatted spreadsheets are applied for numerous design examples. Now I have added a quick and easy introduction to the use of these marvelous tools.
The current collection of my design spreadsheets is under constant development and more will be added and existing will be improved. Check frequently for new additions. The formatted spreadsheets are based on the following three templates:
|
|
Interesting articles and reports are collected in the monographs section - placed parallel to the design spreadsheets supporting the background of the often Code based approaches. |
