Where to use frames, walls, dual systems, stiffness balancing, ductility considerations.

Perform deep engineering checks like a consultant

Drifts, storey displacements, time periods, stiffness irregularities, diaphragm issues, wall behaviour, etc.

Debug models efficiently

Identifying errors that junior designers cannot handle.

Produce professional output

Engineering documentation suitable for design offices.

Make engineering decisions with clarity & confidence

Not just “clicking in ETABS”, but real understanding.

Course Curriculum

📌 Prerequisites (Very Important)

This course assumes you already know the following from Course 1:

TESTIMONIALS

"The course provides a comprehensive understanding of the building design and the use of various software vital for beginners. It has remarkably helped me and now I work in a consulting firm, practicing what I learnt through the course, thanks to Mr. Premjit's savviness. One of the best guides to start off with the designing career!"

Nischitha

"I joined this course with some expectation as I was impressed with the contents. The course exceeded all my expectations. I got a job immediately after the course as most questions were discussed during the course. Some of my friends who did courses in other institutes are still struggling to design independently. I advise them to take up this course"

Vyshakh

"The design courses are comprehensively illustrated. Courses really helped me to stand independently to design and also boosted self confidence in my job interviews. I cannot thank you enough. Each and every time you have cleared my doubts and guided me well. I'm really grateful to have Premjit sir as my career guide. Civilera is the right platform.

Sivanaveen

I had completed my BTech and my MBA in construction management and was doing construction of smaller buildings on my own. The design courses offered by civilera gave me a complete understanding of building structures and now am able to apply this knowledge in my building construction. Civilera enabled me to design and build
