Thanks pilou.

I will give this a go, but I would still love to see something for SketchUp.

Is there any reason why this has not been developed yet? Too hard, not compatible, etc?

Is there any FEA/FEM plugins available for SketchUp yet? I see this topic has come up from time to time over the years but I don't see any resolution posted. It seems that there is a number of people who think FEA for SketchUp is useful. The Enmesh video is perfect but its only a concept (and an old one at that) and its not available.

I am not a coder or Ruby expert but I would love to see FEA for SketchUp become a reality. Is it possible that this functionality could be achievable? I would happily sponsor/fund an open source project to create this plugin and make simple finite element analysis available to all.
