Structural Modelling: Selected Topics in Modelling of Structural Components
Fee: $149 / Online / Aug 19, 2026 / Course Code: 0805-WEB26
OVERVIEW
Please note, This instructor-led course has specific dates and times:
This webinar is held online on the following schedule (All times in Eastern Time Zone): 10:00 am to 12:00 pm Eastern
After participating in this course, you will be able to:
- Understand the finite element modelling of some selected structural components
- Understand the behaviour and modelling of different concrete floor systems and the diaphragms effect
- Identify the effect of modelling techniques on the response of structures
Description
This webinar discusses selected topics in modelling structural components and their effects on the overall structural response. The finite element modelling techniques and concepts are illustrated for these selected topics.
Sophisticated three-dimensional modelling, which truly simulates different types of buildings, requires engineers to understand the complex behaviour of different lateral load structural systems and structural modelling using basic knowledge of the Finite Element Method.
This webinar series provides an opportunity to learn the principles and techniques of structural modelling of different types of structures under lateral loads such as wind and seismic. The concepts and theories are explained thoroughly with conceptual examples, with no full numerical example due to time restraints.
