Designing smarter places of learning

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

This AIA course by Hoffmann Architects offers best practices for choosing the right paver system for rooftop amenity spaces in multifamily buildings.

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 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.
