Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures

Assessment, Repairs & Risk-Based Inspection

Why Choose Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures Training Course?

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 Durability of Reinforced Concrete Structures 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

What are the Goals?

By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:

  • Know the different forms of reasons for evaluating existing concrete structures, as well as the procedures for doing so
  • Know how new live loads would need to be investigated if a residential building is to be used as offices and statistical data on maximum wind speed or maximum snow accumulation becomes available
  • Learn the effects of seismic activity and the need to evaluate the resistance of old buildings
  • Learn the techniques for assessing and retrofitting fragile systems
  • Examine buildings that have been subjected to such severe results, as well as know the guidelines for repair and the manufacture of robust concrete
  • Learn the traditional materials such as steel and concrete
