Course Description

INTRODUCTION

This 3D Structural Analysis and Design of Structural Steel Buildings training course is a must for civil engineers working in Oil & Gas, Power plants, water treatment plants and residential projects. Participants of this workshop will gain advanced knowledge of structural engineering that includes principles of structures analysis and their application, behavior of materials under loading, selection of construction materials and design fundamentals for steel structures.

This training  course will provide sample illustration of real structures that will assist the designer to understand StaadPro and apply it on different types of buildings. Different types of editing data to StaadPro will be discussed. The examples to be used would vary from the typical two-dimensional beams and frames to the three-dimensional multistory frames to special systems such as space frames. Throughout the course, the instructor shall start from the basics to ensure the full participation and comprehension of all attendants.

This GLOMACS training course will highlight:

  • Three-dimensional modelling for different types of structures
  • StaadPro Structural Analysis
