StruCad Now Taught in Romania
15th June 2006
The Department of Steel Structures and Structural Mechanics of The Polytechnic University of Timisoara, Romania, has just held it’s first StruCad University training course. This course for civil engineering students teaches not only StruCad The Worlds Leading 3D Steel Detailing System, but basic knowledge regarding the structural steel industry and steel detailing.
Thirty four students subscribed to this first course using a University IT lab equipped with PC’s configured with StruCad. All students have subsequently had to undertake both oral and practical examination on StruCad and were all required to produce a 3D model. The examinations were conducted on the 6th and 7th June and following the popularity and success of the course, AceCad Software’s regional agent, Dinos Ioannidis of CCS, Greece, recently attended the University to make a presentation, which was also covered by local newspaper and TV.
According to Dinos Ioannidis, the popularity of the course in Timisoara is due in part to the course tutor, Dinu Florea, who has great knowledge and experience of steel detailing using StruCad. ’The potential that StruCad brings, as the World’s Leading 3D Steel Detailing System, is clear and the constant demand for steel structures and thus detailers using StruCad should result in significant future opportunity for these graduates’.
Similar StruCad courses are taking place at additional universities in Romania at the Technical University of Civil Engineering, Bucharest and the Technical University of Cluj-Napoca, as part of their official Civil Engineering curriculum’s. The aim is to ensure that at least 65 students per year graduate with StruCad experience and a StruCad diploma.
