Design engineers and teams who already own or are evaluating 3D-LABS software, and engineers who want a fast, auditable alternative to expensive single-discipline design packages.
📚 Course structure
- Orientation across the suite — What each product does, where it fits in a design workflow, and how to choose between them for a given job.
- PV Master — pressure vessels — Vessel input, thickness and nozzle checks, support and stability modules, and report generation.
- PIPE Master — piping — Line sizing, wall thickness, spans and supports, and stress screening inputs.
- TANK Master — storage tanks — Shell course design, wind girders, roof design, settlement and seismic checks to API 650.
- HEAT EX Master — heat exchangers — Thermal duty, surface area, TEMA geometry and mechanical checks.
- STR Master and FEA Master — Structural member design and finite element checks for non-standard components.
- DRAFTY — drafting automation — Generating drawings and standard details, and cutting repetitive drafting time.
- Working with the calculator library — Using the 680+ engineering calculators alongside the software, and building your own sheets.
- Validation and auditability — Cross-checking software output by hand, documenting assumptions, and presenting results for client review.
- Workflow projects — Two guided projects run end to end using the suite.
