BGSE Usage Statistics
Updated:  22 Aug 2008

A Beginner's Guide to Structural Engineering has been getting some use from around the world since it first went online in August 2007.  A summary of usage is given here.

In late 2008, the site was moved to server farm for because the traffic was getting too intense for our office based server. We changed the way we examined the log files at the same time, hence the different ways of presenting the usage statistics.
