INTRODUCTION
SQVE STRUCTURAL SUMMIT
What sets great engineers apart? It’s not just their ability to crunch numbers—it’s their intuition.
This intuition enables engineers to predict how structures will perform under various loads and conditions, ensuring safety, efficiency, and robustness.
In this interesting talk, we will invite Dr Jawed Qureshi, Senior Lecturer at University of East London.
In this talk, he will take things back to the basics, but in the best way possible. He will explore why understanding why a structure behaves the way it does—not just how to solve for forces and moments—can completely change the way you approach structural analysis and design.
It’s about building a mental model of structural performance. This is vital in a world where reliance on software can sometimes overshadow understanding. Without this core intuition, an engineer is at risk of producing designs that may work mathematically but fail practically.
Structural behaviour isn’t just for specialists—it’s a mindset every engineer should embrace.

RCC-STR-002: Design of Liquid Retaining Structures | IS 3370
The course will begin with detailed discussions on IS 3370 (Part 1):2021 & IS 3370 (Part 2):2021 along with crack width calculations. Thereafter, we will perform analysis of individual plates, rectangular tanks and circular tanks using design tables of IS 3370 (Part 4/1/2/3):2021. For the similar geometries, we will generate computer model in STAAD Pro using plate elements. The analysis results from the software will be compared with the design table results. In the process, we will highlight do’s and don’ts related to software applications for FEM. Subsequently, we will discuss in detail regarding seismic loads as per IS 1893 (Part 2):2014 along with amendment of 2022. Manual calculations will be performed to get more insight about seismic loads for LRS. Towards end of the course, we will take up couple of case studies for analysis and design of liquid retaining structures. We will also explore usage of STAAD Pro + RCDC and compare the results with the manual calculations. The entire course will be useful for preparation of in-house work procedure, check list, do’s and don’ts for liquid retaining structures.
The course will commence from 19-DEC-24.

ONG-STR-001: Design of Pipe Rack | Online course
A process pipe rack in the oil and gas industry is a critical structural framework that supports and organizes process pipelines, utility pipelines, electrical cable tray, instrument cable tray, etc. The course will begin with an overview of refinery processes, various process units, function of pipe rack, etc. We will also highlight important interface areas with different disciplines, including process, piping, electrical, instrumentation, electrical and equipment, ensuring a holistic understanding of multidisciplinary coordination for the pipe rack. We will cover details of each step for structural design of the pipe rack, starting from understanding functional requirements, important points to be checked in input documents, preparation of structural system, generating computer model, load calculations and application in the software, analysis & design of pipe rack, connection design, foundation design of pipe rack, etc. Throughout the program, we will cover important provisions of American codes such as ASCE 7-16, AISC 360-16, AISC 341-16, ACI 318-19, etc. along with software applications in STAAD Pro, RAM Connection & RCDC.
