2 Training Course Description Structural Design Course Guideline This Course is designed for students to be exposed to real market exposure by applying on real projects in market to have engineering sense and breaking ice.so they will learn powerful package of engineering software (AutoCAD, SAP, SAFE, ETABS, CSI Column and Excel). This Course will include varies project types and structure (Traditional building, High rise building, Tank and Halls), in other hand revise important theoretical basics and reinforcement details. Objectives At the end of training course student will get the following skills: A) First Stage Well knowledge with AutoCAD Program and using it in create structural drawings and DXF files to be imported into SAP Create structural model of slab using SAP 2000 Structural design of slab and beams Learn how to use Excel program with application in column design sheet Create final structural drawings B) Second stage Create structural 3D model of real high rise building using ETABS Structural design of different elements (cores, shear walls columns and beams) Well knowledge with seismic & wind loads theoretically and practically How to take consider of structural irregularities on ETABS Well knowledge with checks for high rise building

3 Create calculation sheet Using ETABS Design of column and shear walls with any cross section under any applied straining actions Using CSI Column Creating calculation sheet How to create structural models of various of slabs system using SAFE How to check deflection In accurate method How to check punching How to import loads and floors from ETABS How to model piles on SAFE programs C) Third stage Requirements Making quantity survey using AutoCAD Creating structural model of hall using SAP 2000 How to work on Halls and reinforcement details Types of real supports Creating structural model of Tank using SAP 2000 How to work on Tank and learn reinforcement details Types of structural joints This is training course is designed for engineering faculty students in 3 rd, 4 th year and fresh graduated engineers Training Course Hours 66 Hours

4 Training Course Outlines First Stage (Traditional Building) During the first stage we will focus on learning (AutoCAD, Excel and SAP) AutoCAD Program 1) Essential Essential Orders Setting AutoCAD options Many AutoCAD order that facilitate structural drawings Panda Pen assignment Plotting drawing 2) Application 1) Introduction Create statical system drawings Create structural drawing from Architectural drawings Create DXF file in AutoCAD program Tips & trick of creating DXF file SAP Program What about SAP 2000 Program interface General modeling steps Coordination systems Main structural elements used in SAP 2000 Local axes of members 2) Example on Modeling slabs Defining materials Defining frame elements sections Defining slab and shear wall sections

5 Define loads pattern, load cases Defining load combination Assigning different loads Display deformed shape of member Display different straining action (reaction, ending moment diagram, shear force diagram. etc.) Display deformed shape of member Excel Program Main functions are required for structural engineer Create Excel sheet of column design Second Stage (High rise building) During the second stage we will focus on learning (ETABS, SAFE and CSI Column) in additional using programs in first stage ETABS program 1) Introduction What about ETABS Program interface General modeling steps Coordination systems Main structural elements used in ETABS Local axes of members Degrees of freedom Setting grid lines Setting story data 2) Defining stage Defining materials a) Concrete b) Steel Defining frame section properties

6 a) Define concrete elements b) Define steel elements c) Define non-prismatic elements d) Property modifier e) Define reinforcement of section Defining slab and deck properties a) Define concrete slab b) Define concrete ribbed slab c) Define concrete waffled slab d) Difference between membrane, plate and shell behavior e) Property modifier Defining wall properties a) Define shear walls b) Property modifier for wall Define load pattern a) Dead load b) Super dead load c) Live load d) Earth pressure loads e) Wind loads f) Seismic loads Define load cases Difference between load patterns and load cases Define uniform load sets Define diaphragm Define response spectrum function Define response spectrum cases Define modal cases Define load combination

7 Define pier labels Define mass source Define p-delta option 3) Modeling stage Columns modeling Walls modeling walls Beams modeling Slabs modeling Opening modeling None elements modeling How create 3D model using DXF/DWG file Tips & tricks for automatic mesh 4) Assign stage Assign supports restraint Assign frame section Assign frame local axes Assign frame end release Assign frame auto mesh option Assign frame floor meshing option Assign slabs, deck and walls section Assign area stiffness modifiers Assign area local axes Assign floor auto mesh option Assign wall auto mesh option Assign auto edge constrain Assign pier label Assign spandrel label Assign frame loads Assign area loads Copy & paste assign

8 5) Pre-running stage Check structural irregularities Model check Set building degree of freedom Set load cases to run 6) Post-running stage Check warning analysis log Animation check Check fundamental period Check mass participating ratio Scaling for response spectrum cases Check p-delta effect 7) Design stage Check lateral drift a) Total drift due to seismic loads b) Inter story drift due to seismic loads c) Total drift due to wind loads d) Inter story drift due to wind loads Create calculation sheet from ETABS Exporting from ETABS to SAFE

9 1) Introduction What about CSI Column Program interface CSI Column Program Adding basic concrete, steel shapes Adding shapes from library Drawing and editing any shape on program Editing orders (reshape, flip, rotate.etc.) Define materials Assign accurate concrete cover Assign and editing reinforcement How to consider column slenderness Assign straining action Program auto design and creating calculation sheet SAFE Program What about safe Program interface General modeling steps Setting grid line 2) Creating DXF file Create DXF file in AutoCAD program Tips & trick of creating DXF file 3) Examples on various of slab systems Define materials Define different all slab types Define columns, walls properties How include region zone in model What is effect of rigid zone in model Define load pattern, load cases Define long term, short term deflection

10 Slab modeling techniques Assign loads (point, linear, surface) Assign properties of (beams, columns, walls, slab) Assign property modifiers Assign end release, insertion points Set design preferences Set design combinations Automatic slab meshing Set cracking options Show deformed shapes Show straining actions Show punching ratio Design of slab 4) Example on raft foundations How to import reactions from ETAB model Define different all foundation types Define soil subgrade modulus Define point and linear spring properties Assign soil properties Assign spring properties Check bearing capacity Show straining actions Show deformed shapes Show punching ratio Design of Raft

11 Third Stage (Special structures) During the third stage we will focus on special buildings (Halls and tanks) 1) Quantity Survey Make quantities survey of structural elements using AutoCAD 2) Halls Halls statical system How select appropriate statical How to select preliminary concrete section Types of real supports Reinforcement details of frames Modeling on SAP ) Tank or swimming pool Types of tanks and tanks behavior Types of concrete sections Create Model of chosen structure Assign lateral pressure on tanks Model soil behavior Display straining actions Modeling on SAP 2000 Reinforcement details
