Winter training courses for civil engineering diploma courses

The engineering of the world into a better place is restless desire. Civil engineers are continually working to make the world a better place for all of us to inhabit. So why should you take a break in the forthcoming winter holidays? It's the best time to work on your practical skills and skills you acquired in the past semester learning. With the Winter Training Program for the civil engineering diploma course, you get to work on exciting projects in structural design, project management, and surveying. Here is a brief of what you are going to learn in the winter training program:

Structural and Foundation Analysis: Before submitting any plans for construction works, structure engineers need to design and test the durability and efficiency of the structure. In this course, you will be doing the same by practicing structural design problems with the help of industrial-grade software. The course will start by designing truss bridge models and figuring out the most efficient way to build bridges and then converting them into physical prototypes. The bridge prototype is fabricated with the famous Balsa wood known for its high strength and low mass. Depending on the material and skill you assemble it with, it can take loads up to 1000 times its weight. Similarly, the next project will feature tall structures. At the climax of the course, you will be provided with insights on how to scale up your designs in the real world.

Construction Project Management: If you are great at multitasking, you should wear the construction management's hat! It's the most prestigious job in the world for civil engineers. This program on construction project management has around 14 various tasks to manage construction work from start to end. You will learn how to manage a group of engineers and use your project management software to supervise and handle a construction project. You will learn how to: think and plan methodically, calculate resources and create a schedule, and avoid delays and changes in the project.

Total station and GIS: Those days are long gone when surveyors measure distances with tapes. In recent decades, land surveying has gained a significant uplift with geographic information systems (GIS) and robotic stations. Project managers now favor these technologies because it makes surveying comparatively quick! In this winter training program, you will set up a survey camp with your colleagues where you will measure distances and angles using total station equipment. Before conducting practicals on the range field, Civil Simplified engineers will make sure that you obtain the necessary math skills. After you are done with a full-scale survey, you will study how to map the collected data using GIS software.

With the winter holidays coming up, it’s an opportunity for civil engineering diploma students to acquire experience in practical skills. Winter training programs are an excellent way to get your hands on the learning experience in engineering plans.
