Applying this to practical exercises, attendees will learn how to undertake rapid calculations for different structural members using a small scheme as an example and considering deflection, limit, and materials.
By the end of the course, you should be able to:
Understand the difference between rapid concept calculations and detailed design calculations
Employ a useful framework for rapid calculations using typical structural design problems
Use your own experience to inform your rapid design calculations
Consider the types of questions to ask and have the confidence to answer them quickly

Mid-career engineer
Rachael De’Ath has more than 20 years of design experience working for Arup, and more recently Marbas as well as 3 years lecturing at the University of Bristol teaching design and has continued her role as a visiting lecturer. She has a broad range of experience but prefers to work on existing buildings where she uses her skills and experience to reimagine the existing structure into something new. She was named as one of the Women’s Engineering Society’s ‘Top 50 female engineers’ in 2018 and is an active member of her local IStructE regional group committee.

This practical, two-day, online course introduces engineers to various computational design methods and systems.
This course takes place as a series of two-hour interactive sessions over three weeks. It introduces EN 1991-1-4 for determining wind actions on structures, outlines the basic principles behind the code and covers each step of the procedure for calculating the wind loads on structures. Attention is given to important features introduced by the UK NA.
This one-day, online course helps you improve the quality of your written reports and reduce the time you spend writing. It covers how to adapt your writing style for different documents and audiences. You will also learn some grammar best practice to help you write clearly and concisely.
This course provides an introduction to structural steelwork design to Eurocode 3 for building design.
This one-day, online course offers an introduction to timber design to Eurocode 5.
This course covers the design of common structural elements to Eurocode 2. Participants will be introduced to concrete material properties and learn about designing for durability and fire.
An introduction to four structural concepts and how their implementation can lead to physical measure for creating desirable distributions of internal forces in structures which can generate more efficient designs.
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.
