Description
This course is all about introducing you to structural analysis and design with the help of SkyCiv, an important software platform and a cloud-based tool used by structural engineers. This course starts by explaining the process of installing SkyCiv and its utilisation and later teaches the entire structural engineer workflow which is often used in practice. It also covers the concepts of Reinforced Concrete Member Design and Foundation Design and describes the benefits of ACI 318-14 concrete design code. You will also come across the processes of modeling, loading and analysis of frames using SkyCiv.
Topics Covered:
- Modeling: Know what modeling is and see the section application process of the 2d concrete moment frame.
- Wind Generator: See how wind loads can be generated with the SkyCiv wind load generator as required by ASCE 7.
- Loads: Come across the practical application of two important concepts, vertical dead and live loads.
- Manual Wind Load: Learn how to manually apply the wind loads which are already calculated to the concrete frame.
- Load Cases: Understand how you can identify the load cases for different load groups and later learn how to import and apply them.
- Analysis: Walk through the entire process of running the established 2d concrete moment frame through diverse analyses and processes.
- Reinforced Concrete Design: Learn how to take your established frame to another concrete design and examine its inputs.
- Foundation Design: Get briefed about this concept of design and learn how to switch from a structural model to foundational design.
Who Will Benefit?
- Students Of Structural Engineering: All students who are pursuing structural engineering and want to learn about modeling and load cases.
- Engineering Tutors: Professionals who teach engineering as a subject and want to go through the entire curriculum of structural analysis with SkyCiv.
- Graduate Engineers: Engineers who are already working with the SkyCiv software and want to better understand the design exposure.
