Overview

The Structural Response Training course covers blast loading and fire response for engineers, managers, and scientists. Participants learn about blast loading principles, design guidance, structural and human response assessment, and fire physics. The course emphasizes design procedures for steel and concrete members under blast loading and fire resistance methods. By the end of the course, attendees will be equipped to apply various technologies to assess structural responses under fire and blast loading.

Who should attend

Course Content

Structural Response Training

ABOUT THE COURSE

The Lecture includes Structural Response under blast loading. The fundamental of blast loading  such as the Principle of the scaling law, blast profile are introduced. The basic design principles in the relevant design guidance such as SCI (1999), TM5-1300(1990) will be also introduced, which include numerical method (classical solution and incremental solution) to solve the structural response; The way to assess the structural response and human response using Iso-Damage diagrams (Pressure-Impulse diagrams); design procedure for steel and reinforced concrete members under the blast loading.

Fire

This syllabus also includes Structural Response under Fire. Basics of fire physics and the engineering idealisations made to characterise fire induced “loading” on structural systems. Detailed description of the key features of behaviour of common engineering materials (primarily steel and concrete) under high temperatures and the key responses expected when simple structural systems are exposed to fire. Traditional methods of design to ensure adequate fire resistance and recent trends towards performance based engineering in a probabilistic framework.
On completion of the course you will be able to apply a sound knowledge of various technologies for checking response of structures under fire and blast loading.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
The course is intended for Engineers, Operations’ managers, Applied Scientists and Technologists
interested in design & structure under blast loading.
Engineers, managers and scientists involved in design, assessment and management of a wide range of engineering structures will also benefit from this course.

Testimonials

We’ve helped thousands of professionals grow their skills and confidence. Hear directly from the people who’ve taken our training courses.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!

Black & Veatch

The trainers knowledge was excellent and I liked his examples and how he could relate them to every day relatable examples that we could all understand. Coming from different industries and sectors his examples were a common ground. It was handled very well virtually and the engagement worked with his questioning and answering
