 Is it You?
 You always wonder why Structural Steel Connections are so difficult!
 The type and behaviour is never properly understood.
 For different member types, it becomes all the more difficult
 Member Design can be taken from the Software but what to do about
Steel Connections?
 Often you rely on Standard Details or incomprehensible MS-Excel
spreadsheets without actually understanding them.
 You find it difficult to imagine and provide connections for real life
Projects.

If the answers to the above questions is a Yes,

then,
this Online Course is the answer!

Why are Structural Engineers not confident of

Structural Steel Connection Design?
 Structural Engineers often find difficulty in Structural Steel Connection
Design. This problem starts at Undergraduate and Post-Graduate level
where the subject is not properly taught.
 Books and Documents cover the theoretical aspects but do not teach the
subject matter as applicable in actual Projects.
 As many Structural Engineering firms only do RCC projects, the Structural
Engineer is not able to learn it on-the-job.
 Many Structural Engineers therefore have to often rely on standard
practices or pass it to someone else.
 What is the Solution, AuxEn?
 AuxEn is conducting an Online Short Term Course on Design and
Detailing of Structural Steel Connections
 The Online Course aims to instil confidence and self-belief in Structural
Engineers towards Design and Detailing of Structural Steel Connections
and to take up Steel Projects in a better way.

Why this Course?

 Provides a platform to have an in-depth understanding of Design and
Detailing of Structural Steel Connections.
 Provides a great-mix of learning through manual calculations, verification
and design on Idea Statica software and verification and design using MS-
Excel Spreadsheets including their development.
 Enables the Participant to understand the Structural Steel Connections in a
new light, helping them to realize what it can be!

 Questions you may have in mind (and their answers)
• What to do if the morning time does not suit me?
If the morning time between 8.30am-10.30am does not suit you, you can take
up the Course as Self-Paced Learning Course where the sessions can be
watched as per own convenience. Most our Participants like to take our
courses this way!

• Which Structural Steel Connections be covered?

All the commonly provided Structural Steel connections in actual Steel Projects
will be taken up in the Course.

• What Software are we going to work on?

Idea Statica and MS-Excel Spreadsheets for Connection Design, AUTO-CAD for
Structural Detailing and Drawing.

• I don’t know the Software and I am new to Structural Design, Can I Join?
In this Course we are looking for Participants who know the basics of Structural
Steel Design and want to enhance their knowledge. If you want to build the
basics, you can take our Comprehensive Course on Structural Steel Building
Design and Detailing
