STAAD.Pro & ETabs in Vijayanagar — code-based structural design.
Cadspro's structural-analysis track in Vijayanagar trains civil-engineering students on STAAD.Pro and ETabs — modelling RC frames, applying loads and designing to IS-456 and IS-800. Built for graduates who want to step into structural-design or site-engineer roles.

What you'll learn
- 01
Structural-analysis fundamentals
Quick refresher on statics, member forces, types of supports and stress/strain — the language STAAD speaks.
- 02
STAAD.Pro interface & geometry
Nodes, members, snap grids, repeating geometry, importing DXF — building a model the right way the first time.
- 03
Properties, supports & specifications
Section properties, material assignment, supports, member specs, releases — the parameters that shape the analysis.
- 04
Loads & load combinations
Dead, live, wind, seismic, load cases and combinations per IS code — the part most students get wrong without practice.
- 05
Analysis & post-processing
Running the analysis, reading deflections, BMD/SFD, reactions and identifying problem members.
- 06
RC design — IS-456
Concrete design parameters in STAAD, beam and column design, reinforcement detailing output, interpreting the design report.
- 07
Steel design — IS-800
Steel section design, member capacity checks, connections overview and design output for steel structures.
- 08
ETabs — building modelling
Multi-storey RC building in ETabs — grid setup, slab/beam/column modelling, stiffness modifiers, mass source.
- 09
Seismic & wind in ETabs
Response-spectrum and equivalent-static seismic analysis, wind loads, modal analysis and reading drift checks.
- 10
Capstone — G+3 RC frame
End-to-end project: model a G+3 RC frame, apply loads, design to IS-456, prepare a structural report. Reviewed by faculty.
The roles students step into.
- 01Junior Structural DesignerDesign-office roles supporting senior structural engineers on RC and steel buildings in Bengaluru.
- 02Site EngineerSite-execution roles where reading and verifying structural drawings is part of the job — STAAD literacy makes you stronger here.
- 03Design Office TraineeTrainee roles in consulting design offices where STAAD/ETabs are daily tools.
- 04Estimator / QS JuniorQuantity-surveyor and estimator roles where structural-design output feeds quantity take-offs.
- 05Structural Modelling SpecialistModelling-focused roles for firms with high project throughput — accurate, fast STAAD/ETabs model setup is the skill.
Vijayanagar's training-school advantage.
- 01
Code-based, not just software-clicks
We teach IS-456 and IS-800 alongside the software — so you understand why STAAD outputs what it does, not just how to click through it.
- 02
STAAD and ETabs both
STAAD dominates structural-analysis jobs; ETabs dominates building-design jobs. We teach both so you're not locked out of either path.
- 03
RC + steel coverage
Both materials covered to a project-ready level — most introductory courses skim one and skip the other.
- 04
Faculty from working design offices
Trainers who design real structures — so the workflow, conventions and report formats you learn match what consultancies use.
