Training course overview
Buildings are designed to last for a long time, but many factors, such as corrosion and the brittle increment of concrete, can have an impact on their performance. These factors can cause varying degrees of deterioration in the buildings. Furthermore, buildings may be harmed as a result of deficiencies in the design of the superstructure as well as the interaction of the substructure and soil foundation. It is critical to have a good understanding of the parameters that affect structures in order to avoid many problems and extend the life of buildings. Structural engineers are in charge of evaluating the current state of the system and recommending the type of solution needed to ensure that the modifications are safe, efficient, and cost-effective. This Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures training course will feature Assessment, Repairs & Risk-Based Inspection.
This Coventry Academy training course will feature:
- The main properties of fresh and hard concrete
- Reasons of cracks and its solutions
- Knowledge of destructive and nondestructive tests
- Soil mechanics and its classification and problematic soils
- Precautions to be considered for changing the use of the building
