Eurocode Training

ABOUT THE COURSE
This course will start with an overview of Eurocode 0 which comprises of design requirements, limit state design principles, basic variables and load combinations. Subsequent lectures will involve; design checks for beams, local buckling, shear/bending resistance, serviceability limit state checks and examples. Also, it will involve design checks for compression and tension members, design for combined axial load and bending and examples. Finally the course will conclude with design checks for bolts and welds under different loading situations and examples.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND
Engineers and scientists involved in the design, operation and assessment of both onshore and offshore structures.
