In 2021, we have hosted 27 structural engineering webinars and an extra one in collaboration with The Institution of Structural Engineers UK. We had a great time preparing and delivering them to our both our customers and followers. In this article, we have made a short retrospective of the webinar topics we went for. Moreover, you can find links to some of our webinars that are accessible on-demand. Access them to find out how to get the most of our structural analysis software.
1. We catered to the learning needs of our customers and followers
We have identified in-depth learning needs for our customers and followers and catered to them by doing live webinars, events, and so on. Regarding webinars, our focus has always been to find cool, interactive ways to present what our software can do for them. As such, our webinars include working hands-on with the software, practical examples, workflows for solving common challenges, highlight of the modules, and relevant solutions for the viewer’s needs.
What we have found out is that the ever-growing demand and complexity in civil engineering has increased the need for in-depth learning. We will continue to address the learning needs of our customers and followers by releasing new webinars in 2022. Until then, check the list below with a selection of our on-demand webinars that we recommend regardless of if you are a veteran or a beginner in structural engineering.
2. On-demand webinars about Diamonds
Diamonds is our core structural analysis software for steel, concrete, and timber structures. We have hosted 19 webinars about Diamonds and how it can help structural engineers become more successful in their projects. Our top picks for you include:
• "Fire resistance analysis with Diamonds".
• "Analysis of steel structures with Diamonds".
• "Settlement calculation with Diamonds".
• "Concrete cracking with Diamonds".

3. Webinar about BIM Expert
In July 2021, we hosted a live webinar about BIM Expert. This is our BIM software for endless and seamless exchange possibilities between various software packages that structural engineers love and use every day. As such, it ensures great interoperability with Tekla Structures, Idea StatiCa (Connection & others), SAP2000 and Etabs, CXL format, and our Diamonds and PowerConnect products.
The webinar “Smart BIM workflows when calculating steel connections” is not readily available, so we recommend you watch a short video on how BIM Expert works and saves you time.
