REVA VENU V M

I am a budding geotechnical engineering professional. For three years I have worked as faculty in NIT and recently joined as project fellow- geotechnical engineering in a research Institute. Now I am in the transition phase of my career ie, shifting from academics to industry. My desire to become a geotechnical engineering consultant inspired me to join this course. As I don’t have much industrial exposure, attending the course GEO-STR-001 helped me to gain a lot of practical knowledge related to geotechnical engineering. Especially the discussions related to soil investigation, interpretation of soil report and interactive sessions were really amazing. Queries of other participants and the discussions associated with it,were really informative, as it mainly focussed on current industrial practices. Thank you Vivek sir and Bhavin sir for giving this wonderful opportunity. Hoping for a better support in my future endeavours too. Also expecting further courses related to this, in the coming future.

STEEL-STR-001 course is very informative and very well explained about the hidden insights in the IS800 code.

Kunal Patil

At first I never expected the sessions which are going to be conducted would be so knowledgeable. Day by day listening to Abhay sir touching every aspect from the codal point of view, few from his own experience. The mixture of everything made this course WIND-STR-002 very valuable and useful. Before this course I was trying to learn from everywhere how does this wind dynamic forces are to be calculated but through SQVE consultants arranging this webinar and learning under experience fraternity was worthwhile.

Nitin Sharma

I would like to thanks and appreciate for this helpful course comprising of STAAD PRO Training and Design concepts for RCC and Steel. In this module I have learned in detail about essential concepts for designing industrial buildings and gained an understanding of different types of Analysis. I also acquired the knowledge of different types of Codes. Moreover, l was introduced with FEM, design of foundation, anchor bolts and connections. All the sessions were very interactive and engaging. The valuable knowledge that i have gained in these two months will certainly be propitious to start my career as a structural engineer.

WIND-STR-002 : Explanation regarding wind action and building response due to wind, and the way of clarifications to participants questions by Dr. Abhay Gupta sir was excellent. Looking forward to attend relevant upcoming webinars/courses.

Parth Gandha

The course STAAD-STR-001 was really amazing an knowledgeable. As I fresher I gained so much knowledge about all the little things I didn’t know that were so much important. Troubleshooting of the software was the most important topic as a single wrong interpretation of the warning can totally change the outcome. I heartily thanks Shri Bhavin bhai and SQVE consultants for introducing such wonderful courses so that we can perform good in practice.

Mainak Ghosal

The Course WIND-STR-002 was very effective. It changed my perspective on not only wind engineering but also seismic loading analysis. Dr.Gupta also referred some excellent books which would not have been possible otherwise. Last but not the least, Dr. Gupta was kind enough to give me the charges of highlighting the errata for the Explanatory Handbook on Wind Engineering.

Dipal Trivedi

The course GEO-STR-001 effectively addressed the gap between geotechnical and structural engineer. It not only covers important interface areas but also discusses consequences of poor interface. Subject experts have in depth knowledge and experience to address expectations of various participants ranging from fresh engineering graduate to highly experienced professionals. The course is interactive and experts are more than willing to address any queries of the participant. The course content is appropriately divided into multiple sessions over the weekend to allow flexibility to participants to participate and reflect during the week at their convenience. Overall, this course is highly recommended for structural and geotechnical engineers for gaining and enhancing the understanding of the very important interface between geotechnical and structural engineering work.

Session 42 : UHPC – An introduction – Material, Design and Application

INTRODUCTION

LIVE TECHNICAL DISCUSSION SERIES

Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) is a cementitious composite material composed of an optimized gradation of granular constituents, with an ultra-low water-cement content, and a high percentage of discontinuous internal fiber reinforcement. UHPC is densely packed using micro and sometime nano size material ingredients, which imparts UHPC its two signature properties – ultra-high mechanical and ultra-high durability. The result is structural sections that are over 50 percent lighter than concrete sections, negligible reinforcement, and a service life that is devoid of any structural maintenance or repair.

The material finds applications ranging from bridge and building structural elements to protective overlays on bridge decks, industrial slabs, building facades, mechanical device bedding and foundations, interior panels, tiles, outdoor furniture, and blast resistant structures amongst others.

When we think GREEN and SUSTAINABILITY, UHPC stands out above and beyond its peers – both concrete and steel. UHPC has positioned itself strategically between  Concrete and Structural Steel and has the ability to not only be used independently but also a a composite with both these materials.

We are planning to have series of discussions on the important subject. In the initial talk, we will attempt to cover introduction of UHPC (Material, Design and Application).

In the upcoming live technical discussion, Dr. Satish Jain will join us for interesting discussion related to UHPC.

Topics covered in WIND-STR-002 were new for me to understand, as it has never been covered in syllabus. But the way Dr. Abhay Gupta sir taught, explained the problems and shared his experiences, the subject got easy to understand. I feel proud of being his student.

Sujata Gupta

It gives a good awareness about software as well as corresponding codal provisions. So one can get technical knowledge as well as how software using clauses giving in codes. Teacher is very patient, soft spoken and knowledgeable person. Topics selected in the course STEEL-STR-001 are very relevant, useful and to the point for design and analysis of steel structure.

Anal Shah

The course WIND-STR-002 was so interactive and Dr. Abhay Gupta was so kind enough to listen to all queries and answer them in very great detail. Also time spent by Dr. Gupta is highly appreciated. Great job Dr. Gupta in spreading the knowledge.

Dipal Trivedi

The course GEO-STR-001 effectively addressed the gap between geotechnical and structural engineer. It not only covers important interface areas but also discusses consequences of poor interface. Subject experts have in depth knowledge and experience to address expectations of various participants ranging from fresh engineering graduate to highly experienced professionals. The course is interactive and experts are more than willing to address any queries of the participant. The course content is appropriately divided into multiple sessions over the weekend to allow flexibility to participants to participate and reflect during the week at their convenience. Overall, this course is highly recommended for structural and geotechnical engineers for gaining and enhancing the understanding of the very important interface between geotechnical and structural engineering work.

BHARATENDU PATEL

This course related to STAAD.Pro and case studies was beyond the conventional software training. It helped me conceptualise the idea behind the behaviour of any structure, understand the special requirements between steel and concrete structures. Real life case study and interactive sessions made the learning more impactful.

Parth Gandha

The course STAAD-STR-001 was really amazing an knowledgeable. As I fresher I gained so much knowledge about all the little things I didn’t know that were so much important. Troubleshooting of the software was the most important topic as a single wrong interpretation of the warning can totally change the outcome. I heartily thanks Shri Bhavin bhai and SQVE consultants for introducing such wonderful courses so that we can perform good in practice.

Session 39 : Scope of Geotechnical Investigation

Live Technical Discussion Series

(Soil Structure Interaction…)

Interface between geotechnical engineers and structural engineers is of paramount importance for stability of the structure as well as for the cost optimisation. There are gap areas in the industry with respect to the important interface area. One of the gap area is pertaining to define appropriate scope of geotechnical investigation. It may be ideal that the scope of geotechnical investigation is decided jointly by geotechnical consultant and structural consultant. However, in the typical project cycle, structural engineer may decide scope of the geotechnical investigation in isolation as the geotechnical consultant may not be on board at that time.

In the upcoming live technical discussion, we will arrange discussion related to scope of geotechnical investigation. Following shows few of the questions related to scope of geotechnical investigation:

  • How to decide number of bore holes?
  • How to decide depth of boreholes?
  • What are the different types of tests to be included in geotechnical investigation?
  • SPT vs CPT…whether both tests are required.
  • How to decide number of tests per borehole?
  • Input to be given by structural consultant for preparation of the report
  • Scope related to recommendation of foundation type
  • Scope of geotechnical investigation as per IS codes
  • and many more…

Opportunity of sponsoring the event is available. Inquiries may be sent to sponsor@sqveconsultants.com

Feedback of few participants for previous online courses

Akash Solanki

STEEL-STR-001 was the best package for understanding the limit state design of steel structures using IS800:2007 along with its application in STAAD.Pro. Tremendous wealth of knowledge from Bhavin sir combined with queries by other participants really facilitated a great learning experience. Thank you for such an amazing course. I hope more such courses are on the way.

Mainak Ghosal

The Course WIND-STR-002 was very effective. It changed my perspective on not only wind engineering but also seismic loading analysis. Dr.Gupta also referred some excellent books which would not have been possible otherwise. Last but not the least, Dr. Gupta was kind enough to give me the charges of highlighting the errata for the Explanatory Handbook on Wind Engineering.

Praveen Upadhyay

Bhavin Shah is a fantastic trainer, very friendly and encouraging, it was a well-delivered and presented course (STAAD-STR-001) that was well received by the group. There was a great balance between theory and practice and the concepts were clearly and professionally explained.

Ravichandra

STEEL-STR-001 is very wonderful course. I have learned many things through this course. During session Bhavin sir interaction with the participants is very great with clear explanations. We are expecting these type of courses in future also.

Tarnpreet Singh Gill

The course content for STEEL-STR-001 has been thoroughly devised to be effective in best manner. Sharing of Recorded Sessions was the best part as I myself missed few end sessions due to office pressure but I could complete these later on. Making a permanent whatsapp group for discussion was also a good idea.

Hiren Desai

The course WIND-STR-002 is very much informative as well as useful for practicing engineers considering the non availability of easy to detailed literatures and practical examples.

M. K. Haridharan

In the course ETABS-STR-001, all the session are very interactive, it has a touch with theory, hands on training and practical aspects. The knowledge of the mentor is extraordinary in all aspects.

Dhirender Singh Bisht

I am pursuing masters in structural engineering and steel was the topic that I found always challenging since my B.Tech times. Moreover this is also a missing topic for the syllabus of many universities in masters program. To understand its theory ,and execute it practically in software is really challenging and need a mentor for that. I’ve been following Bhavin sir from last few months and was it was my good decision to choose him as a guide. By the course STEEL-STR-001, now I can feel that I am in a position to explore boundaries of IS code, and also I’m enthusiastic to see how Euro code, AISC code and other countries code tackles the problem which sounds to be complicated in IS code.

Sharad Gupta

I am very grateful to Er. Dr. Abhay Gupta and Mr. Bhavin Shah for sharing your knowledge with us even though we have the same profession. Your course WIND-STR-002 helped me to clear many of the doubts I had sine the past 20 years.

REVA VENU V M

I am a budding geotechnical engineering professional. For three years I have worked as faculty in NIT and recently joined as project fellow- geotechnical engineering in a research Institute. Now I am in the transition phase of my career ie, shifting from academics to industry. My desire to become a geotechnical engineering consultant inspired me to join this course. As I don’t have much industrial exposure, attending the course GEO-STR-001 helped me to gain a lot of practical knowledge related to geotechnical engineering. Especially the discussions related to soil investigation, interpretation of soil report and interactive sessions were really amazing. Queries of other participants and the discussions associated with it,were really informative, as it mainly focussed on current industrial practices. Thank you Vivek sir and Bhavin sir for giving this wonderful opportunity. Hoping for a better support in my future endeavours too. Also expecting further courses related to this, in the coming future.

Anvitha Yadama

It has been an excellent course and given me an in-depth understanding on ETABS and STAAD.Pro software . I feel more confident in my understanding and it helped me complete my major project in my B.

I Recommend to join STEEL-STR-01 to all upcoming Structural Engineers.

Nitin Sharma

I would like to thanks and appreciate for this helpful course comprising of STAAD PRO Training and Design concepts for RCC and Steel. In this module I have learned in detail about essential concepts for designing industrial buildings and gained an understanding of different types of Analysis. I also acquired the knowledge of different types of Codes. Moreover, l was introduced with FEM, design of foundation, anchor bolts and connections. All the sessions were very interactive and engaging. The valuable knowledge that i have gained in these two months will certainly be propitious to start my career as a structural engineer.

Shefali Thakkar

STEEL-STR-001 was the best interactive course ,wherein all practical facts and limitations those are related with prevailing standards, software and practices were discussed. Vision was provided to participate towards solving such prevailing limitations rather following the same collaboratively. Course content was described very effectively and constant encouragement on experiments of the course deliverables and raising doubts and solving the same. Effective time management by faculty to satisfy all participants’ queries along with effective delivery of course content. 24 hour interaction facility was made available for solving course related queries.

STEEL-STR-001 is very useful course for updating to new code for steel design of buildings.

Kunal Patil

At first I never expected the sessions which are going to be conducted would be so knowledgeable. Day by day listening to Abhay sir touching every aspect from the codal point of view, few from his own experience. The mixture of everything made this course WIND-STR-002 very valuable and useful. Before this course I was trying to learn from everywhere how does this wind dynamic forces are to be calculated but through SQVE consultants arranging this webinar and learning under experience fraternity was worthwhile.
