Structural Drawings with CAD

Preparing structure drawing is one of the most tedious tasks, to say the least, and when the structure is highly complex with plenty of structure details, that adds further complexities for CAD Technicians and Engineers. That’s why we develop this course and address various stages and procedures to develop Structure drawings using AutoCAD. The first module covers Introduction to AutoCAD and its basic interface. The module also shares all the details of the menu, command windows, pop-down windows and other operational details. The second module covers the basic setting of AutoCAD, basic functions, and interfaces. The third module explains how to use various toolbars in AutoCAD. Some toolbars are very useful for structure drawing preparation. The fourth module explains how to develop an architecture plan and develop each component of the plan layout. The fifth module is the continuation of architecture plan development and structure details development. The sixth module explains how to place columns in the building plan layout and then how to develop column layouts and associated details in the drawing. The seventh module explains how to place beams within the building plan layout and how to develop beam layouts and associated details in the drawings. The eighth module explains how to develop the Slab Layout of the building plan layout. The ninth module covers the shuttering layout development. The module also covers the foundation layout development. The tenth module covers the reinforcement detailing the process of beams, columns and slabs.

Tunnel Engineering

Road tunnels are alternative ways, to cross a physical obstruction such as a mountain, or river, etc. Tunnels are considered as a viable solution, to minimize environmental impact, noise pollution, air pollution compare to the elevated viaduct. It is also intact the historical spirit of the location, such as archaeological value, conservation of endangered species and natural habitat. Our Tunnel Engineering course modules are designed to cover all key aspects of Tunnel Engineering. It covers the definition of a tunnel, its shape, criteria of tunnel consideration, type of tunnels, tunnel lining, tunnel construction engineering, rock tunnelling, soft-ground tunnelling, etc. The first module starts with shapes and elements of tunnels, criteria of tunnel consideration such as ground condition, environmental impact, land use restriction, constructability, sustainable development, etc. The module then shares the types of tunnels based on the method of construction such as cut and cover tunnels, bored tunnels, soft ground tunnels, immersed tunnels, jacked box tunnels. The second module covers the horizontal and vertical design of tunnel alignment, cross-section element, geotechnical Investigation and details of cut and covers tunnel. The third module covers rock tunnelling and soft-ground tunnelling. The module explains how rock behaves, fails and rock failure mechanism. The module then explains rock tunnelling methods like drill and blast method, tunnel boring machine (TBM), and road headers method. The module also covers soft ground tunnelling methods like shield tunnelling, slurry tunnelling, sequential Excavation Method (SEM), The fourth module covers tunnel lining and tunnel construction engineering. Tunnel linings are installed for reasons like providing ground support, maintain the tunnel opening, limit the inflow of groundwater, provide a base, for the finished exposed surface of the tunnel, etc. The module covers the key points of tunnel design consideration like lining stiffness, and deformation, durability, high-density concrete, corrosion protection, lining joints, etc. The module also covers the reasons for lining stiffness, deformation and mitigation measures. Lastly, the module covers key aspects of tunnel construction engineering such as Constructability, Construction Sequencing, Mucking and Disposal and Health & Safety.

Tekla Structure Design

Tekla Structure is the most advanced structural BIM software that assists designers to create, combine, manage and share multi-material 3D models packed with invaluable construction information. Right now in the BIM (Building Information Modelling) environment, Tekla Structures is one of the best and powerful software for any kind of structure design. We cover the entire Tekla Structure Design Course in the following modules: The first covers Introduction to Tekla, advantages, and interface of Tekla operations. The second module covers the modelling tools used in Tekla Structures software. The third module covers the modelling of an industrial shed and its elements like columns, rafters and purlins. The fourth module covers the modelling of the industrial shed and its elements like bracing and side runners. The fifth module covers drawing production and explains the process of generating General Arrangement Drawings. The sixth module covers moment connections. The seventh module covers shear connections. The eighth module covers the creation of template connections and the modelling of typical connections. The ninth module covers numbering checks, modelling checks and clash checks. The tenth module covers the preparation of fabrication drawings.
