Course Description:
This beginner-level course introduces engineers to using STAAD.Pro software for structural modeling, analysis and design. Engineers who are using STAAD.Pro for the first time, and those who want a refresher course on the sophisticated modeling and analytical tools of the program will benefit.
Target Audience:
Mechanical Engineer; Plant Engineer; Process Engineer; Structural Designer; Structural Engineer; Structural Engineering Technician
Learning Objective:
You will learn fast and better techniques for building and checking complex models. This program is a great time saver for people who are accustomed to doing laborious hand calculations, spreadsheets and large scale simplifications of complex stress analysis and design situations.
Course Topics:
- Introduction to STAAD.Pro
- Model Generation using the pro-processor
- Building the Structure Geometry, Visualization and Structural Integrity checking tools
- Assigning Properties, Member Orientation, Materials, Connection information, Loads
- Analyzing the model
- Viewing and validating the results
- Steel Design - code checking, member selection
- Modeling walls and slabs using finite elements
- Generating beam-column-wall-slab models
- Understanding plate element results
- Introduction to concrete design
