About the Workshop

Recent revolution in science and technology provide new opportunities in building to analysis its structure before building an actual construction. This professionally oriented workshop is design to understand the core concepts of computer analysis of frame structure, by getting into the principal of structural analysis and structural elements with the up-gradation of technology. Workshop will attempt to develop the concept of computer modeling of real life structure with a justified simplification in a systematic way by focusing on modern matrix method and finite element analysis. The software results are worth only if the user has a good understanding of the structural analysis and its modeling aspects. This practical scenario relating workshop will provide participants to get sound understanding about the topics and practical implementation of a topic which could be utilized to works in different analysis platform like STAAD.Pro, SAP or any other.

Objective
The objective of the course is to build capacity of engineers for engineering skills to implement in structure engineering software and more importantly, imbibe a culture of following these skills meticulously. The training will be given to overcome barriers or find easy solutions to a common problems like modeling, instability etc. Some fundamentals will be outlines to help engineers brush up on related theories.
