 CSI ETABS – FROM BASIC TO ADVANCE

About this training

Structural engineering is one of the most demanding specializations of civil engineering. Now a days
dealing of real-life challenging projects by conventional approach is too difficult. Industry demands both
conceptual understanding of structure and deep knowledge about the trending software’s. So, in the light of
demands and need of today’s era, we are offering this training program. Training program is specially designed
for all who want to become professional structural engineer.

CSI ETABS: ETABS (Extended Three-Dimensional Analysis of Building System), is one of the well-known
software for analyzing, designing, scheduling and detailing any kind of structure. Most of the iconic structure of
the world were analyzed and designed in this software. This software is developed by CSI (Computer Structure
Incorporation). ETABS software is embedded with CAD-like drawing tools with an object-based interface and
grid representation.

ETABS software has the following implications in the construction, designing, and modeling industry:

1. Can view and manipulate the analytical model with great efficiency. Plans and elevation views are auto-
generated at every grid lines.

2. Analysis of concrete shear walls and concrete moment frames. ETABS is highly acclaimed for static and
dynamic analysis of multi-story framed and shear wall buildings.

3. It is the most popular civil designing tools used in the building industry and increases the productivity of
structural engineers. It also prevents the investment of unnecessary time and money in general-purpose
programs.

4. The input, output and numerical solution techniques of ETABS are particularly designed to take an upper
hand of the unique physical and numerical characteristics associated with building type structures. As a
result, this analysis and design tool accelerates data preparation, output interpretation, and overall
execution.

 STAAD RCDC – FROM BASIC TO ADVANCE

About this training

Structural engineering is one of the most demanding specializations of civil engineering. Now a days
dealing of real-life challenging projects by conventional approach is too difficult. Industry demands both
conceptual understanding of structure and deep knowledge about the trending software’s. So, in the light of
demands and need of today’s era, we are offering this training program. Training program is specially designed
for all who want to become professional structural engineer.

STAAD RCDC: Staad RCDC has important application in the structural design field. This software is capable
of performing design, scheduling, detailing and BBS. The strength of this software is that it enables the users to
have the results of design, schedule and details in a very short period of time in comparison of time required to
do that all by manual approach in Auto-CAD. This software needs analysis report from any software as (ETABS
& STAAD PRO).

RCDC software has the following implications in the construction, designing, industry:

1. All the elements of structure as beam, slabs, columns and shear wall along with shallow and deep
foundation can be designed.

2. It is the most popular civil designing tools used in the building industry and increases the productivity of
structural engineers. It also prevents the investment of unnecessary time and money in general-purpose
programs.

3. The results generated by this software can be manipulated at any stage.

4. It enables to have Auto CAD drawings for all schedule and design.
