Design of Steel Structures

Workshop Objectives :-

The use of structural steel for Industrial structures is very common. There is great scope for the development
of the structural potential of steel, taking advantage of its high strength and stiffness, automated design and
fabrication, speed of erection and improved means of protection against corrosion and fire, to produce
elegant, economic and durable structures. This workshop will focus on the introduction of steel structures,
theory and design of steel structures. Workshop is based on Revised IS – 800 – 2008 code. At the end of
the workshop, the participants are expected to -

• Have a basic understanding of the behavior of steel structural systems including Pre Engineered
Buildings.
• To develop technical competence in the design of Steel Structures using computers.

Participants :-
The workshop is designed for
• Structural Engineers / Consultants / Designers.
• Contractors / Site Engineers
• Civil Engineers from various Govt. / Semi Govt. departments / Private sectors.
• Civil Engineering students / Fresh Civil Engineers who intend to work in Structural Engineering.

Workshop Structure :-
Theory classes - 45 Hours
Practical sessions - 20 Hours
Site Visits - 08 Hours.

Workshop Schedule :-

The workshop is scheduled from 07-Jan-11 to 15-Jan-11

9.30 am to 5.30 pm

Workshop faculty :-
The workshop will be conducted by –
Professional Engineers and Eminent Faculty members from Engineering Colleges

Methods of Assessment:
