Civil Engineering Design Mastery: AutoCAD, Archicad, SketchUp & ProtaStructure
This comprehensive course is designed to transform you into a confident, industry-ready civil engineer by mastering the most important software tools used in modern construction and engineering projects. From precise 2D drafting to advanced BIM modeling, 3D visualization, and structural analysis, this program provides a complete, practical workflow used by professional engineers today.
You will begin by learning AutoCAD, where you will develop strong foundations in professional 2D drafting and detailing for civil, architectural, and structural drawings. You will create accurate plans, sections, elevations, layouts, and construction details using real engineering standards and drawing conventions.
Next, you will move into ArchiCAD, a powerful BIM (Building Information Modeling) tool, where you will learn how to design intelligent buildings in both 2D and 3D. You will model complete projects including architectural layouts, structural components, and documentation while understanding how BIM improves coordination, accuracy, and project efficiency.
To enhance visualization and presentation skills, the course covers SketchUp, allowing you to quickly create and refine 3D models, massing studies, site layouts, and interior/exterior concepts. You will learn how to convert technical drawings into visually appealing models that help clients, stakeholders, and teams clearly understand the design.
Finally, you will master ProtaStructure, a professional structural engineering software used for structural modeling, analysis, and design. You will analyze and design beams, columns, slabs, shear walls, and foundations while applying real design codes and load combinations. This section bridges the gap between drafting and real structural engineering decision-making.
Throughout the course, you will work on real-world civil engineering projects, following a complete workflow from concept and drafting to 3D modeling, structural analysis, and final construction documentation. By the end of the program, you will produce a complete professional project portfolio that demonstrates your ability to handle real construction and engineering tasks with confidence.
Whether you are a civil engineering student, graduate, technician, or beginner, this course equips you with practical skills, modern tools, and industry-standard workflows required to succeed in today’s competitive engineering and construction industry.
