Instructional Media for Using the Program Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional

Abstract

Nowadays, programs used in construction work are important in drawing and design. Several options are available. Design programs are twoand three-dimensional structural analysis and design programs which can analyze large and complex structures accurately and rapidly. Moreover, a design software can design various types of building structures and constructions. A video media of software tutorial was created to make teaching and learning more efficient and to easily understand how to use the program for accurate calculation, analysis and design by using the Autodesk Robot Structural Analysis Professional program. A steel structure warehouse with a dimension of 30 x 60 meters was chosen as an example in this study. The instructional media was produced to demonstrate the use of Robot Structural Analysis Professional software in analysis and design of the selected warehouse step by step. The instructional media was evaluated the effectiveness of the content by five experts. The revised instructional media according to the comments of the experts was tested by 34 students via pretest and posttest. The result was found that analysis for efficiency in production technical is in a very good level. Analysis for content performance is in a good level. Production technical satisfaction analysis is in a good level. The average score of content satisfaction analysis, test results, users, and media usage before studying was 8.176, and after studying was 14.294. The score after studying was statistically significant more than before studying at 0.05. Keywords—structural analysis, building structures, instructional media
