This two-day, online course extends the principles developed in the Understanding Structural Behaviour course. It covers more complex real structures and failures; and the important skills of approximate analysis for checking computer output and member sizing.

Learning outcomes

By the end of the course, attendees should be able to:

  • Review the modelling process

  • Recognise the fundamental behaviour of structural elements

  • Determine initial sizes of most structural elements in steel and reinforced concrete

  • Develop overall scheme designs for building structures 

  • Appreciate overall structural equilibrium

  • Describe the behaviour of 3D structures

  • Interpret and explain the behaviour of real structures

  • Reduce complex structures to simpler forms

Intended for

  • Recently qualified graduates under training who wish to improve their skills in structural modelling

  • The course will also be of interest to experienced engineers who are returning to the structural design office

  • The course is excellent preparation for The Institution of Structural Engineers Chartered Membership Exam

Entry criteria

  • Completion of the Undertstanding structural behaviour course is recommended
