SAP 2000 Training Report

This document outlines topics covered in an SAP2000 V17 hands-on training course, including: 1) defining different element types like frames, tendons, cables, and links; 2) applying load cases like wind, seismic, moving, and wave loads; 3) performing analyses such as general, response spectrum, buckling, time history, and P-Delta; 4) learning the SAP2000 interface and creating default files; 5) modeling different object types from line/frame to area/shell to solid elements; 6) using automeshing and special tools; and 7) exercises applying the skills learned. The course aims to teach the full SAP2000 workflow from model setup to design review.
