- Hey guys! Here's another day in my life where I work from home and get work done. I appreciate you for watching and taking time to be supportive, you are all awesome! See you on the next one!
Thanks for this video, I'm a structural engineer myself and it totally fits my daily life especially about the problems we can have with the software and feedbacks from the architects and the impossible deadlines we try to meet !! 😂
tell me about it. do you have an youtube channel ? so that i follow your journey as well
hello Daniel, keep going! continue to give insights of your work. There are not a lot of videos with your thematology.
also many do not understand that but i do it too. i buy monitor, mouse and keyboard if they do not provide to me the ones i want, cause they help a lot on me working fast
Thanks I love your channel
Hello!
Can you please answer a couple of my questions:
1) I am a student in the 11th grade and also want to be a civil engineer, please tell me what programs you need to study (that is, revit ...)?
2) Do I need to be able to draw to work in this position? To draw by hand, it's just not very good for me, or is it more work where mathematical and physical calculations are required
3) Do I need a good knowledge of geometry? I really love physics, algebra, computer science, but I hate geometry
Thank you so much for your hard work!
Hi Emil! So I would definitely start learning Revit if you're interested in structural engineering. It's one of those skills that can be learned before learning design concepts. It's actually considered a trade, AKA drafts person, who only work on setting up drawings and plans. It also makes it easier to hire someone who already can help produce work (using revit) right away, rather than teach a new hire everything from the ground up. Lastly, yes you should have a good understanding of basic calculus/geometry/and general physics. Sadly geometry is a going to be included in pretty much all your engineering classes. Wish you the best of luck!
@@dmontenegro Thank you so much for your reply! I really appreciate it! We will now have to make a bias on geometry. Thank you again for your help! Good luck to you and all the best!

Which software use structural Design in this vedio

Hi I am graduated civil engineer. Good knowledge for me
Hello Mr Daniel . I really appreciated you for what you are doing. I have 3 questions.
1) How many years take you for learning those things?
2) Do you give any software courses from beginning to Professional?
3) What do you advise for graduation civil engeenerings students?
Thank you :)
1. I started learning about structural engineering at the beginning of my internship 2020. So I'm a little over 2 years into the industry.
2. And I've thought about it but don't know what to cover seeing as there's a ton of things to talk about. Any suggests are appreciated. If I were to make a course I would want to know what people would want to learn, a specific program, tackling a design problem, tips & tricks? There's just too much that I don't know where to start.
3. Stay curious and try your hardest to find joy in engineering and problem solving. This is a demanding job but I find it personally rewarding by finding things about it that make me happy. In this case it's seeing model renderings and finished buildings. :)
Thanks for watching! I really appreciate your time and interest!
@@dmontenegro The answer of 2th is realy hard as you said. As you know that there are a lot of things in this job. And you can share your knowledges which looks importants things such as software tricks, solvings tricks or which programs learning will take us further for companies. Because companies want at least some software and which are those will be okay generally?. In addition, reading project tricks and knowledges. But mostly, the companies look softwares and construction techniques solvings. Not everyone write comments like me. But you can be sure everbody needs them as my opinion:). In summary, the most useful softwares for civil engeenering, the Aci code learning, reading hard projects, construction problems solvings. You could start to explain from any of them
Thanks for your answer 👍
My guess is that the architect is an older guy and they forced him to learn revit for BIM and you got the short end lol
😍😍😍
how often structural engineer visit to the construction site? Do they find time to be with their family or do they have to work in different places for most of the year like civil engineers?
Structural engineers have to travel from time to time but it’s not an often thing. Most people in the office only go to site maybe once a month or once every 2 months. So there’s definitely a lot of time for family.
@@dmontenegro some construction companies have two or three branches around the country. are structural engineers want to move among these branch office to work?( I'm mean ,Suppose I am working in a main branch office of the company but the construction site is near the sub branch office. So should I shift from the main office to the sub office or can I continue working about the constrution sites in the around the country from the main office?
@@sonalfonseka1543 You don’t really have to be physically near the site in order to work on the project. A structural engineer will do spot checks during a certain phase of construction (if asked to) but they don’t have to be the constantly checking in on every little thing. Most of the engineering work is done on the computer so it can be done anywhere really. No reason in making people relocate when it’s not necessary.
@@dmontenegro thank you so much for your responses
@@sonalfonseka1543 no problem! :)
Bro in which company are you working ??
How to get intership for structural engineer position
Easiest way would be to start off drafting, so get really good at revit. Have a marketable skill that they would want. It’s really hard for companies to try to teach you if you can’t give something back in return. Good luck!
You have a cute coworker
What’s the name of the dell laptop you use?
I primarily work on my macbook and use a virtual machine (aka remote desktop). Hope that helps!
