This course demonstrates how significant blast resilience and resistance is possible with careful design, planning and detailing of a structure.
This course delivers practical advice through the use of worked examples on dynamic analysis, conceptual design for earthquake resistance and seismic design of structural elements to Eurocode 8. Emphasis is placed on concrete and steel buildings although the concepts are widely applicable.
An online talk about concrete-steel bonds at high temperature
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 one-day online course introduces timber as an engineering material, with a focus on its use in historic structures. It covers non-destructive techniques for condition assessment and strategies for the reuse of heritage structures.
This course provides an introduction to structural steelwork design to Eurocode 3 for building design.
This course equips practicing engineers to undertake the full structural design of a building, including designing a robust building to avoid disproportionate collapse.
