Designing smarter places of learning

This course explains the how structural steel building systems are suited to construction of education facilities.

This course outlines the attributes, functions, benefits, limits, and acoustic qualities of composite deck slabs. It reviews the three primary types of composite systems that represent the full range of long-span composite floor systems and examines the criteria for their selection, design, and engineering.

This course provides an overview of structural steel deck design and the ways to improve building performance and to reduce total-project costs.

This instructor-led video course discusses actual project scenarios where collaborative steel joist and deck design have reduced total-project costs. In an era when incomplete structural drawings are a growing concern for our industry, the course reveals hidden costs and risks that can be avoided.

This course reviews today’s range of structural steel joist and deck systems, including long-span composite “thin slab” floor systems for multi-story building design and construction. Included are guidelines for application based system selection, finishing options, and sustainability for multi-story projects.

Here are seven key areas where innovation in structural engineering is driving evolution.
