Why This Is a TRUE Master Program in Structural Engineering

  • 70+ hours of structured, project-based structural engineering training focused on real project execution using industry-standard tools such as CSI ETABS, CSI SAFE, AutoCAD, STAAD RCDC, CSI Detail, and PROKON — reflecting real consultancy design workflows.
  • Unlike software-oriented courses that focus only on tool operations, this program emphasizes structural engineering fundamentals, design logic, and international code philosophy, aligned with global engineering practices.
  • You will learn how to think like a structural engineer — understanding load paths, structural behaviour, stability requirements, and design checks — and then validate those engineering decisions using professional analysis and design software. software.
  • In parallel, the program builds strong competency in code-based RCC design, with detailed application of international and Middle East standards including ACI 318, ASCE 7-16, Dubai Building Code 2021, International Building Code (IBC 2009), and CEP-FIB 90, as used in real global engineering projects.

Complete Structural Design Learning Flow

Step 1: Understanding architectural drawings and client requirements.

Step 2: Structural planning and preliminary member sizing.

Step 3: Manual load calculations as per ACI 318, ASCE 7-16, Dubai Building Code 2021 and relevant codes.

Step 4: Structural modelling and analysis using ETABS.

Step 5: Seismic design and 10+ stability checks as per ACI 318, ASCE 7-16, Dubai Building Code 2021,

Step 6: Exporting super-structural loads into SAFE for foundation design.

Step 7: Manual footing size calculations as per ACI 318, ASCE 7-16, Dubai Building Code 2021 and relevant codes.

Step 8: Foundation design and analysis using SAFE

Step 9: Stability checks like One way, Punching shear as per ACI 318, ASCE 7-16, Dubai Building Code 2021

Step 10: RCC detailing and drawing preparation using RCDC and AutoCAD.
