By the end of the course, you should be able to:
Appreciate how forces due to gravity and other effects are resisted in a building’s structure
Demonstrate a knowledge of the tools available to the structural engineer to counter these effects
Appreciate the concept of efficient design and its impact on embodied energy
Appreciate finite element analysis methods
Develop an appreciation of key engineering concepts and terminology
Other built environment professionals and engineers
Chris is an Associate Director at Mason Navarro Pledge. Chris created this course to highlight the need for greater integration in the design of buildings in the wake of Building Safety Act 2022. Chris has been actively involved with advising construction professionals on the impact the Building Safety Act will have in how it will impact the method of design of buildings. Chris has been working in the field of structural engineering for over 30 years and draws from his experience from developing structures for a large variety of buildings ranging from music halls through to stadia and everything in between.

This half-day, online course covers the methods by which the lateral stability of a building structure is achieved.
This two-day, online course introduces seismic design of civil engineering structures. It builds on the basics of structural dynamics and engineering seismology. The course focuses on seismic loading and design codes, conceptual seismic design principles and analysis for seismic loading, and design and detailing of structural members.
This half-day in-person course provides guidance to early-career structural engineers to develop a better understanding of geotechnical engineering and use that knowledge to enhance and promote sustainable design.
This two-day course is an essential introduction to the conceptual design process for bridges. It covers two key areas: selecting a structural form to suit the constraints of a site and arranging materials and components to meet the demands of the structure in an elegant and logical way.
This course gives guidance on the key considerations when planning the construction of deep basements. It covers using both embedded wall bottom-up and top-down construction in accordance with Eurocodes 2 and 7.
This one-day, online, practical course introduces timber connections in detail and several other advanced topics in timber design to Eurocode 5.
This one-day, online course offers an introduction to timber design to Eurocode 5.
This interactive online course will share current state-of-the-art frameworks for the adoption of resilience-based design in professional practice, demonstrating advantages compared to a traditional prescriptive design and providing examples of how they benefit the client.
This two-day 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 computational output and member sizing.
