MS Project - Basics

A Project is an undertaking, carried out individually or collectively as a team to achieve a goal. Every company or firm carry out projects activities every day either properly or casually. Every project requires detailed project planning in order to run the project more effectively and efficiently. Project planning provides organizations with a framework for scoping projects, sequencing activities, utilizing resources, and minimizing risks. This is a basic course covering key concepts of project planning using MS Project as a tool. A hands-on civil engineering project program is developed and step by step process is explained for the student to learn how to plan, analyse, and manage projects. Students will witness state-of-the-art methodologies to develop the project program. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching MS Project, start-up window, quick access toolbar, Ribbons and Menu, Options settings, etc. The second module provides a quick process to develop a civil engineering project with key design tasks. The course then explains the key parameters of a task and how one task is linked with another task. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. In the third module, students will learn task dependencies. How the function like start to start or start to finish etc works. The course also provides details of task constraint in civil engineering project environment and how to incorporate that in the project program. The fourth module provides a detailed process of sub-task development and how to link those sub-tasks within the main task. The course develops a situation where a sub-task comes with a constraint and explain the process to deal with the constraint without impacting the project duration. The project belongs to a civil engineering environment so it would be very useful for a student to correlate it with real-time project scenarios. The fifth module provides a detailed process of splitting a task. This is extremely critical for a task if it needs to be delivered in phases due to interlinking with other tasks. The course also provides a process of task formatting to make it unique against other tasks to easily identify it. The sixth module details out the meaning of free slack in the program and its advantage. The module explains the process of how to utilise free slack in a project program to effectively add any new task without affecting the overall duration of the project. The seventh module details the process of resource allocation. In this module, resources are assigned for a particular task of a civil engineering project and team members of different grades are assigned to carry out a task. The process will assist the student to understand how to assign a time frame to all team members to complete a task. The eighth module provides a detailed process of optimising resources. By doing this, key members of the team could be free up for carrying out another project. This would help the project team to efficiently utilize limited resources at any given time.

PRIMAVERA P6 Basics

Primavera P6 is a globally recognised one the most effective tool to plan, manage and execute civil engineering projects. But getting training of Primavera doesn’t come for free, most of the time. That’s why we develop our courses for a very nominal fee, yes you heard it right. It's only $5.00 if you are our subscribed member and you will not only get access to Primavera Course but also to all our courses that shows a $0 fee. Primavera P6 can sometimes be a complex tool to understand if your basics of using the tool are not clear. That’s why we develop our Primavera Basic Course for you to clearly explain step by step process to develop a project program. We use real-world civil engineering project examples and develop the program so you can easily grasp it and correlate it with your real-world projects. And you can view them as many times as you want. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching Primavera P6, start-up window, drop-down menus, toolbars, sidebars, option settings, etc. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. The second module provides details of Enterprise Project Systems (EPS). Primavera is a cloud-based Project Planning tool and it saves the projects program of the enterprise in EPS. So, it's very important for students to know how to operate EPS and how to create a new EPS category for a new project. The third module provides details of setting up a new project within a new EPS category within Enterprise Project Systems (EPS). The module also covers the process of developing a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) of a new project. This is the most important step of a project before assigning any activity. The fourth module provides a detailed process of creating activities of a project. We have developed a civil engineering project program, so the activities are developed for a civil engineering project. The fifth module provides a detailed process of setting up the calendar of the project. Primavera provides global and project-specific calendar options. It would be very useful to know when to use what type of calendar. The module also explains how to assign a calendar to a project. The sixth module explains the process of setting the layout page of the project program. It explains how to set the columns for activities, the Gant chart and the activity area. you can also customise the layout for a specific project or for a specific user. The seventh module covers the process of linking activities in three possible ways. It also provides details of predecessor and successor linking. The module also explains the linking process in a specific constraint situation and shows how that impacts the overall project duration. In the end, a high-level project program is created to demonstrate the whole process of project planning using Primavera P6.

RAM Connection

RAM Connection is a standalone software for steel connection design. RAM Connection is one of the best solutions for structural engineers to review steel connections of single or multiple joints of a steel structure. It permits engineers to customise a significant segment of the steel connection design to meet project needs as required. There is a big database with pre-built connections and it offers designers to select the required connection from the database. The first module covers the Introduction of RAM Connections, their basic settings and different types of pre-built RAM connections available within the database. The second module covers the interface of RAM connections. It talks about various tabs like browser tab, property tab, toolbar tabs, etc. The third module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Column-Flange (BCF). The fourth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Column-Web (BCW). The fifth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam-Girder (BG). The sixth module covers the RAM connection design of Beam Splice (BS). The seventh module covers the RAM connection design of Column Splice (CS). The eighth module covers the design of Column Beam and Brace (CBB). The ninth module covers the design of VERTICSL V BRACING (VXB) The tenth module covers the design of Chevron Braces (CVR). The eleventh module covers Base Plate Design Connection and Base Plate With Brace design. The twelfth module covers Tapered Column Rafter Knee Connection.
