This course is aimed to those with basic experience of Autodesk® Robot™ Structural Analysis Professional (RSA), and who wishes to understand how to use the steel design features in Robot to design steel structures.
Content:
• Introduction
• Code check for beam element
• Group design and optimization
• Joint design and verification
• Stiffness calculation of joints and how to implement in model
The focus is on understanding the calculations done in Robot and how to use them in your design. We combine theoretical lectures with demonstrations and practical exercises on relevant examples. After the course, participants will be able to use RSA for steel design, analysis and documentation. They will be able to utilize the large set of predefined steel sections that RSA offers, or make custom ones of their own.
