Safety of society

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.

This one-day, online course examines changes between BS 5950 and Eurocode 3. The emphasis is on buildings and the provision of general rules for buildings of EN 1993-1-1 and design of joints to EN 1993-1-8.

This course provides guidance on specific aspects of demolition and refurbishment from an engineering perspective whilst addressing safety, environmental and sustainability influences.

This popular one-day, online course offers guidance on the design, stability, safety and performance of tall buildings.

This two-day, online course shows engineers how to arrive at a qualitative solution to both create a structure and check computer results.

In this interactive online surgery, construction law solicitors from Ashurst will answer a selection of your questions around the legal obligations under the Building Safety Act

This one-day, online course offers an introduction to timber design to Eurocode 5.

This course equips practising engineers to undertake the full structural design of a building, including designing a robust building to avoid disproportionate collapse. The course covers designing buildings of Class 1 – 2B and alterations/change of use of existing buildings.

This month we present a report expressing concerns about a repeat failure of building cladding, in severe but not exceptional winds, that saw panels fall to the public street below.

This month's CROSS report concerns water ingress that caused parts of the cross-laminated timber (CLT) structural frame of an eight-year-old building to rot.

As the field of engineering continues to evolve, new technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and language models are becoming increasingly important tools for structural engineers. AI and language models can provide many benefits to structural engineers, but they also come with potential risks that must be considered.

This month's CROSS report concerns a report that the glass produced by some processors has not been properly heat-soaked and is therefore much more likely to shatter in use.

This month's CROSS Report concerns the modelling of steel frame joints when using computer programs.

The third webinar of the Modern uses of timber series focuses on hybrid structures.

Modern uses of timber: practicalities of designing with timber.
