Practice Text Input With MCT Command Shell

Peter Wong So created this learning episode for engineers because he believes that MCT (midas Civil Textfile) will save engineer's time and human errors. Here's his feedback:

There are limitations with the Midas GUI and tabular inputs; these become more evident when dealing with repetitive inputs/operations. Think construction staging of cable-stayed bridges and segmental bridges and its associated stage and load definition for each stage.
While a small subset of Midas Civil users will delve deep into MCT (Midas Civil Textfile) input, most users can benefit very quickly with the following tips:
  1. Defining structure groups including node and element association
  2. Defining multiple load cases at once
  3. Quick definition of load combinations
Defining patterned loading, boundary conditions and construction stages is only a step further.
While the GUI input and tabulated input are handy, MCT is the real productivity booster. You don't necessarily need to learn the syntax - the cheat way is to 1) define a load / b.c. / etc. once using the GUI or tables, 2) export the MCT file, 3) replicate the syntax and pattern in Excel or any preferred software and 4) import/copy your own MCT input into your model.
Technically, if you can see a pattern in your Midas inputs, give MCT input a try - it will save you time and mitigate human errors during manual inputs
