Demo
Interested, but not sure how it would work? Click on the
link and get to a 32 minute demonstration. Before starting, the demo will
download Java onto your computer, then install the Elluminate Software (Check
to see if you are requested to allow the download). The first 14 minutes is
an introduction to using Elluminate to create a virtual classroom in the
on-line environment. The last half of the presentation is a short
course on the basics of trusses.) This will introduce both Online Live and
Online Anytime courses.
General Structures and Lateral Forces
The General Structures and Lateral Forces classes are
being offered in an interactive online format. The focus of the sessions is
preparation of A.R.E. candidates for the General Structures and Lateral Forces
portions of the exam. Each session teaches fundamental principles of
structural engineering through solving structural problems and discussing
real life examples.
This refresher course in structures should give licensed architects greater
confidence and more tools for use in their daily practice. The General
Structures portion of the course may be taken separately. The Lateral Forces
review assumes ability in General Structures and may taken separately.
The online format allows the course to be spread out over several days. Each
session will have an intermission allowing you to move around, snack, etc.
The online format will allow you to ask questions at any time and receive
immediate responses, just like a face-to-face format. Attendees are very positive
about this course and this online format. Alan recently took this class from
his office in Hawaii and said, "Thanks for organizing a great class.
Overall, I thought it was excellent. Marc really know his stuff and is very
patient and thorough in presenting it."
Who should take this course:
Architectural Candidates preparing to take the A.R.E.
General Structures and Lateral Forces exams.
Practicing architects and interns who desire a
refresher course in structures.
Goals
of the Workshop:
- Prepare Architectural
Candidates for the General Structures and Lateral Forces Exam by using
the instructors experience and education in architecture and structural
engineering.
- Relate
the fundamental principles of structural engineering through problem
solving and discussion of real life examples where these items are
encountered.
This refresher course in
structures should give the attendee greater confidence and more tools for
their daily practice. The GS portion of the course may be taken separately.
The Lateral Forces review may be taken separately.
