News & Events

ReBar (Reinforcement Bar)
            We have organized a technical seminar on ReBar (Reinforcement Bar) software for structural detailing of bar bending schedule for all reinforced structures. 80 students have attended the program at Training & Placement seminar hall on 11.08.2017.
            Mr. K. Balan, Operations Manager of International Drafting & Detailing Pvt. Ltd. has delivered the technical lecture on “Reinforcement design and detailing for all concrete structures – using ReBar CAD software” to the final year Civil Engineering Students.
            The session was very much interactive in nature, where the reinforcement detailing for almost all civil engineering structures was discussed with the help of photographs and videos of real time projects. This program was very much useful for the students to enhance their knowledge in the area of structural detailing.
The feedback from the students was requesting our institution to conduct such programs in future.
Analysis of Indeterminate Structures
            We have organized a technical seminar on “Analysis of Indeterminate Structures” at seminar hall on 27.09.2017.
            Dr. S.Vimala, Professor, P.S.N.A College of Engineering, has delivered the technical lecture on “Analysis of Indeterminate Structures” to the third year Civil Engineering Students.
            The session was very much interested, various methods used to analyse the frames and indeterminate beams were discussed. This program was very much useful for the students to enhance their knowledge in the area of structural Analysis.
