WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES
There are many development and researches every days and ongoing to enhance the concrete production and properties. so in this course will present up to date techniques in concrete industry from design stage, construction and repair stage.
In order to improve the properties of concrete, recent advances in material science introduce new materials or admixtures to be added to or replace conventional concrete materials. Such materials could be used in new concrete construction and/or in repairing new or existing structures.
Moreover, there are many researches in using different types of structure system to carry all types of loads in normal and high rise buildings. So this course will illustrated all the structures system up to date and advantages and disadvantages for every system.
Moreover, the trend on the international codes as ACI and BS will be presented to increase the engineering sense about design feeling by comparing between the different codes and standard. The new pushover structure analysis will be illustrated to evaluate the structure optimizing the design of high rise building.
There are also parallel advanced techniques in construction to produce high quality concrete on site will be presented.
This five-day course will introduce newly developed concrete materials as well as the repair materials utilized in most repair works in concrete structures either for those needed during construction or for rehabilitation of existing structures. The course will also cover test methods and technical specifications for such materials as well as troubleshooting for their most common problems. At the end of this course, participants will know the necessary information about the different advanced concrete materials.
So, this course presents for all people who are working on the area of the repair and maintenance of the reinforced concrete structure the recent technology and the golden rules using in the repair work and preparing the maintenance strategy.
The course introduces the ways of repair for different concrete structure elements and presents the precaution and the materials and other resources needed for each type of repair.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This seminar is designed for people in construction, industry and government who are involved in building construction and maintenance and repair programs. This also design for who are involved in preparing maintenance document package and diagnosis the reasons of failure and also the engineers who define and choose the methods of repair.
