STAAD RCDC FE course — FAQ

What is RCDC FE used for?

RCDC FE is used to design, detail and draw RCC elements that are analysed with finite elements, such as flat slabs, plates, rafts, mats and combined foundations. It reads the analysis results and produces reinforcement, drawings and reports.

Do I need to know STAAD.Pro before learning RCDC FE?

Yes. RCDC FE works on results from an FE analysis model, so you should be comfortable with STAAD.Pro modelling, plates, loads and analysis, plus basic RCC design.

How long is the STAAD RCDC FE course?

The STAAD RCDC FE course is 24 hours long. It takes you from preparing the analysis model to final drawings and reports through a practice project.

Is RCDC FE training available online?

Yes. Besides classroom training at CADD centres, STAAD RCDC FE runs as live online classes in which the trainer works through slab and raft examples with you on screen.

Will I receive a certificate for the RCDC FE course?

On completing STAAD RCDC FE you are awarded a CADD Training Centre certificate. It has its own verification code, so a structural design consultancy can look it up on the website.

How does RCDC FE help a structural engineer's career?

Design consultancies want engineers who can turn analysis into reinforcement drawings quickly. RCDC FE skills support roles such as structural design engineer, RCC detailing engineer and design checker.

What is the difference between RCDC and RCDC FE?

RCDC handles beams, columns, footings and conventional slabs from a frame analysis, while RCDC FE handles plate elements analysed by finite elements, such as flat slabs, rafts and mats.
