Three steps to similar layout

copy html from that page
- remove content and menu and replace with {content} and {menu}
copy css from that page
-assign to your newly created template
copy images from that page
-check all image paths

And you have similar layout in cmsms.

But please keep in mind that, if you just copy all of the layout, you're harming the copyright of the site's owner.
So make sure, that you look at the site and try to create it on yourself, with your own code and graphics. Or try asking the site owner, if you may copy the layout.

You can also make a look to one of default templates named "EllNav Horiz/Vert L 2col". You have only to transform it how you like ...
