The scope of the presentation incorporates a brief review of the research path and future research in addition to the in-class projects and modeling. A second-order non-homogenous differential equation is employed in my research papers to add the aesthetical and architectural views to the structural system and deliver the art of math in a real-life structural building. The modified differential equation provides a strong alternative to the most recent American Institute Steel Construction, AISC codes for structural engineers through a new derived alignment chart to facilitate the design process. Coding skills and 3D printing are functionalized to enhance learning in the classroom. Other alternative teaching methods are presented to combine playing games and practicing some of the theoretical concepts using virtual reality.
