The Complete Guide to Robot Structural Analysis (RSA) for Real-World Structural Design

In today’s fast-changing construction industry, structural engineers are expected to do more than just calculate.

You’re expected to design smarter, deliver faster, and communicate your decisions clearly, all while ensuring safety and code compliance.

Robot Structural Analysis (RSA) is a powerful tool trusted by engineers worldwide to model, analyze, and design even the most complex structures. Yet, many professionals never move beyond the basics, leaving them overwhelmed by warnings, unsure about code compliance, and underconfident in their designs.

This course is here to change that.

Whether you’re starting out in structural design or looking to sharpen your analysis skills, this hands-on program will help you move from uncertainty to sound engineering judgment and code-compliant design.

Instead of getting lost in theory, you’ll tackle real-world design challenges.

Program Objectives

  • Model, analyze, and design structures using RSA.

  • Apply accurate loads and combinations per Eurocode.

  • Design and detail various slab types: solid, ribbed, waffle, and hollow-core.

  • Design reinforced concrete beams, addressing bending, shear, torsion, and detailing.

  • Design short and slender columns under axial and biaxial loads with stability checks.

  • Model and design shear walls for lateral loads with proper reinforcement and interaction.

  • Design pad, combined, and mat foundations, accounting for bearing, settlement, and reinforcement.

  • Verify, document, and interpret structural analysis results.

  • Integrate RSA into collaborative BIM workflows.

  • Present structural designs with clarity and confidence.

Are you ready to stand out in structural design?

Great engineering isn’t just about software — it’s about using the right tools with purpose.

This is your chance to master Robot Structural Analysis (RSA) and design safe, efficient, and impactful structures like a pro.
