This class is designed to broaden your concrete design and detailing expertise. Using S-CONCRETE, learn how to define, edit, load, design, and detail reinforced concrete sections for beams, columns, and walls according to the ACI, CSA, and EC2 standards. We will also use S-LINE to define, analyze, design, and detail continuous reinforced concrete beams. In examining the results generated from these concrete design solutions, the attendees will have the opportunity to study some of the calculations that go into the various design checks the software performs.
The course is delivered in a live 3 hour lecture.
Includes graded Final exam (you will receive a score report for your records)
Certificate of mastery will be provided to attendees that achieve a final score above 75% and Educational Units will go towards an S-FRAME certification
Earn PDH (Professional Development Credits) for attendance
