5. MSN:
- History... Cont
MSN is on the leading edge be it with
applicable codes or design software and its
expert advice is sought in both areas.
Due to the Structural Engineering strength we
are frequently requested to look into structural
issues or structures with specific conditions
that are beyond “run of the mill” structures.
RAM Concept developers, Bentley use us for
their software testing as our use of it is most
extensive.
We also undertook with Bentley a one day
seminar in Abu Dhabi, four days training
course of PT design using RAM Concept in
Dubai and one day seminar of Kuala Lamoure
(Malaysia), both are conducted by Dr.
Jabakhanji.
