Course Introduction

This course should be on the top list of must-take courses for civil engineers across all the industries such as oil and gas, water treatment, power plant, and industrial factories project. Professionals who intend to enhance their knowledge and skills in the analysis of steel and concrete structures designs, basic and advanced principles of structure renovation, and foundations of renovation will greatly benefit from this course. 

 

What does industrial building design mean?

Industrial building renovation and design is a very critical course for professionals involved in construction in any organisation. This course will give the participants the required skills and in-depth knowledge to stay ahead in their respective industries without breaking a sweat.

 

What are the different types of industrial buildings?

This course will provide enlightenment into the real structures illustrations. This will enhance understanding of the design methodologies and be able to practically use the acquired knowledge in different industrial buildings and structures. Case studies and relevant examples will be used, ranging from typical two-dimensional beams and frames to the well-known three-dimensional story buildings that use frames to space frames that are used in special systems.

The course will cover different techniques and methods for inspecting, evaluating, and investigating the causes of structural deterioration and the most effective methods for renovation. 

 

 This course will feature the following:

  • Methods and techniques used in the renovation
  • Analysis and design of industrial buildings
  • How to select the most suitable structural system and how to prepare the general layout
  • Methods and effective techniques used in structures and industrial buildings investigations
  • Materials to be used for repairing steel structures
  • Applying load combination and load application as per ASCE/UBC/IBC
  • Various methods are used in structure renovation
  • Materials used in concrete structure repairs and renovation

Course objective

  • Thoroughly understand the process of renovating and designing industrial buildings
  • Have a better and improved understanding of the various materials used in the renovation
  • Determine the most convenient geometry, structural system, and various layouts
  • Naturally, investigate and create an assessment report of the building conditions
  • Effectively analyse and design steel and concrete industrial buildings per international guidelines
  • Make accurate decisions on the most appropriate renovation methodologies
  • Effectively apply load and load combination calculations to structural models following international standards
