              STEEL-STR-001 : ONLINE COURSE                     

DECODE IS 800:2007 ALONG WITH SOFTWARE

Are you facing any practical difficulties while designing steel structures as per IS 800:2007?..OR...Do you want to learn design of steel structures from first fundamental then you might be interested in the upcoming online course. After successful completion of two batches of the course, we have received many requests for relaunching the course. Accordingly, 3rd batch of the course will commence from 26th May, 2022.

Brief about the course

For design of steel structures, IS 800:2007 was published before ~13 years but still there are many practical difficulties related to implementation of the IS code. It is not a conventional revision of the code as there is complete change in design philosophy from working stress design method to limit state design method. There are practical difficulties since commentary on the code along with practical examples are not available. Also, there are certain gaps between the latest IS code and the current popular software.

It is heard from few engineers that the tonnage we get from the design using IS 800:2007 is higher than the earlier code. Also, there is no confidence in the group of engineers while designing the structure using limit state design method. Hence, they are cross checking results with the working stress method since the software is having both the options.

These kinds of scenarios have prompted us to launch a unique course: STEEL-STR-001 ( Decode IS 800:2007 along with the software). 

The course will cover discussion on important clauses of the code as well as application of same in the software, ETABS & STAAD.Pro. The course will cover the important areas such as second order elastic analysis, plastic analysis, elastic buckling load factor, moment amplification factors, effective length calculations, different limit states, block shear, lateral torsional buckling, connection design, earthquake resistant design, fire resistant design, durability, etc.

 

Feedback of few participants

Shefali Thakkar

It was the best interactive course, wherein all practical facts and limitations those are related with prevailing standards, software and practices were discussed. Vision was provided to participate towards solving such prevailing limitations rather following the same collaboratively. Course content was described very effectively and constant encouragement on experiments of the course deliverables and raising doubts and solving the same. Effective time management by faculty to satisfy all participants' queries along with effective delivery of course content. 24 hour interaction facility was made available for solving course related queries.

STEEL-STR-001 was the best package for understanding the limit state design of steel structures using IS800:2007 along with its application in Staad. Tremendous wealth of knowledge from Bhavin sir combined with queries by other participants really facilitated a great learning experience. Thank you for such an amazing course. I hope more such courses are on the way.

I am pursuing masters in structural engineering and steel was the topic that I found always challenging since my btech times.Moreover this is also a missing topic for the syllabus of many universities in masters program. To understand its theory ,and execute it practically in software is really challenging and need a mentor for that. I've been following Bhavin sir from last few months and was it was my good decision to choose him as a guide. By this course now I can feel that I am in a position to explore boundries of is code,and also I'm enthusiastic to see how euro code aisc code and other countries code tackles the problem which sounds to be complicated in IS code

WHAT IS UNIQUE ABOUT THIS COURSE?

 

The course is designed by the experienced engineer (Mr. Bhavin Shah) who have more than two decades of experience in the field of structural engineering.

  • The entire course is designed from the practical aspects which can be readily used in the real projects.
  • The course is designed to have an interactive mode so that the problems / doubts of the participants can be addressed effectively.
  • The tutorial / exercise will be given to the participant during each session so that they get the hands-on experience related to design of the stee structures.
  • The important clauses of the IS code will be discussed along with the software, ETABS and STAAD.Pro.
  • Recording will be shared with the participants for future reference.
  • Certificate will be issued on successful completion of the online course (min. 80% attendance is required.)
  • The course is designed as a process of learning together.

Join us for Process of Learning Together

Aim of the course is to improve the design  standards for steel structures. We will create small focused groups of interested engineers to take up the further exercises on the unresolved areas during the course.
