Structural Drafting using AutoCADLength: Approximately 10 Weeks Cost: $1100.00
People who learn Structural Drafting work for engineering design firms, architects, plants and refineries, highway departments, and various manufacturers of heavy equipment and structures.
The courses starts out with 2D Drafting of some standard details and connections. Next comes a building plan where all the beams and columns are detailed, along with the connections. Finally, a 3D drawing of a piping skid is done to teach the more advanced techniques of AutoCAD and Structural Drafting. Houston has always had a steady demand for this type of work, since we have diverse and extensive manufacturing and petrochemical industries.
