The Agricultural Training Institute-Central Luzon (ATI-CL), in collaboration with the Bureau of Agricultural and Fisheries Engineering (BAFE), spearheaded the Training Course on Structural Analysis using Staad.Pro Connect Edition (Workshop on Instructional Analysis for Agricultural and Fisheries Infrastructure) at ATI-RTC III Government Complex, San Ramon, Dinalupihan, Bataan on August 21-25, 2023.
The training course objective is to capacitate the participants from various municipalities in Central Luzon with the knowledge and technical skills in the conduct of structural analysis especially since they are mandated to prepare, evaluate, validate, and recommend engineering plans, designs and technical specifications on agricultural and fisheries infrastructure projects.
The Director of the Bureau of Agricultural and Fisheries Engineering (BAFE), Engr. Ariodear Rico, underscored the significance of the training program in enhancing the competence of ABE professionals in the country.
“Nais kong magpasalamat sa opportunity na ito at sobrang natuto ako. Medyo challenging dito sa training na ito dahil kailangan mong ifamiliarize yung mga standard at factor na dapat nating iconsider pagdating sa pag-analyze ng structure at design,” shared Engr. John Peter J. Subiaga, a participant.
With the help of esteemed experts from the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Head Office, the participants gained valuable insights and technical skills that will contribute to the growth and development of Central Luzon's agricultural and fisheries sectors.
