This course teaches you all the essential things you need for designing an RCC building. The course is designed in such a way that the student does need not to have any prior experience with the software. The course starts at the level of beginners, with the basic creation of properties, modeling, and load application. Importing of the plan from AutoCAD into Etabs is also covered. We will create load patterns, load cases, and also base fixities for the modal. Once the building is designed we will run the analysis and reiterate the design. This course ends at the advanced stage where students will be thought how to make the structure safe and economic from the industry point of view. The biggest plus point of Etabs is the representation of the analyzed results with graphs, and colors. This way of result representation is way better than Staad pro or sap2000. This plus point of Etabs helps us design the structures faster.   

This course is both for civil engineers, and people who are structural engineers.

Indian Codes such as IS 456:2000, IS 875 PART 1, IS 875 PART 2, IS 875 PART 3, IS 1893:2016. are covered from a design perspective.

Actually, the courses are very helpful. But I recommend to give us two things 1. One full and complete course from scratch of modelling upto design using seismic loads 2. complete foundation design of all types of footings whether combined, Isolated, or Mat by CSI Etabs, not by CSI Safe. Thank you

By Shafiul Azam on 7/27/2026

Explanation was so good for me. Easy to understand. This course does not contain any stair and Lift core. But all i got form the course is enough excecpt stair case and lift core

THE LECTURER FOCUSED ON MOST OF THE TOPICS VERY WELL AND IN A DETAILED MANNER PLUS HE HAS ADDRESSED ALL THE PROBLEMS AN ENGINEER WOULD FACE WHEN USING ETABS . HE AS CLEARED ALL DOUBT AND RESPOND VERY QUICKLY TO ALL THE DOUBTS THAT ARE ASKED BY STUDENTS REGARDLESS OF THE IMPORTANCE THE QUESTIONS HOLD. VERY IMPRESSED BY THE WAY AND APPROACH OF TEACHING BY SIR SHADAB THANKYOU

The subjects of the course are good but the instructor talks too fast, there are a lot of times i have to rewind the video only to understand what he just said.

By Sagar Indi on 11/14/2025

The instructor explains concepts clearly, starting from the basics and gradually moving to advanced topics. Real-world examples and step-by-step modeling exercises made it easy to follow along. The pace was perfect, and the practical assignments helped me gain confidence in using ETABS for professional projects. Highly recommended for both students and practicing engineers.

By Pritam Bagal on 8/6/2025

if you are a beginner dont know anything about structral engineering and modeling and anything.. you will definately became master in this modeling and analysis in etabs and safe.... as a student i will giving 100/100 to the teaching and explanation over each part .. this course was worth it!..

By Mohammad Arif on 2/4/2025

i am very happy to learn most of the things, witch i have not even listen from my couching center. thank sir for your help for providing us such lectures for a very reasonable price, allah aap ku kush rakhay

By Faizan Khan on 7/8/2023

excellent Course..Each & every concept have explain excellent with practical approach.. Shadab sir..Should have also arrange a course of structural design of religious places like Mosque, Temples..Since it is very rare found on internet...

By Ali Imran on 2/1/2022

The course is good for beginners who have no experience with the topic. The tutor is able to convey the information in a nice and simple language. The course could have included some other aspects such as staircase design and detailing, water tank design, some steel structure such as a warehouse. The last section containing the detailing part was very good. Not a lot of trainers go into detail with reference to that. Overall above average experience.
