Elementary Structural Design Workshop
: Course Description:
This course is a practical structural design course that contains step-by-step procedures that include instructions that help understand and solve routine building structural problems. The course contains a short introduction to the National Building Code of Canada, NBCC 2005, and then goes into detail on how to calculate the expected environmental and occupational loads on a structure, which includes dead, live, snow, wind, and seismic loads. The course then goes into the design of more...
Flexible and Rigid Retaining Wall Systems Design Workshop
: Objective:
To present an in-depth review of design, application and construction of flexible and rigid retaining walls systems.
Description:
The goal of this course is to provide participants with state-of-the-practice design tools and construction techniques to expand implementation of safe and cost-effective earth retention technologies. This course addresses the selection, design, construction, and performance of earth retaining structures used for support of earth fills and excavations or cut slopes. The instructor covers factors that affect wall selection. Class discussions will include design procedures and case histories, demonstrating the selection, more...
Flexible Pavement Design Rehabilitation Workshop
: Description:
Pavements are one of the main components of our transportation and infrastructure systems. By daily expansion of our ground transportation systems and higher costs of construction, maintenance and rehabilitations of pavements, highway agencies are facing challenges to keep serviceability of their pavements to an acceptable level. During the last two decades, the issue of proper design, high quality construction as well as optimum maintenance and rehabilitation of pavements have been the focus of highway agencies, contactors, consulting engineers, and researchers. With the relatively large investment involved in pavements, even marginal improvement in more...
Foundation Design
: Description
This course deals with all aspects of modern good practice in foundation design. These include: the importance of both the geological and geotechnical aspects of the ground conditions, current limit analysis methods for bearing capacity, and definition of factors of safety. The various settlement analyses and their underlying assumptions and reliability are discussed, together with a thorough treatment of the design of piled foundations.
Objectives
The main objective of this workshop is to enable participants to select the best foundation solution for different types of civil engineering problems. After completing the course participants should be able to design shallow and deep more...

Instrumentation Monitoring Condition Assessment for Engineers
: Description:
The use of field instrumentation to monitor the on-site behaviour of structures and equipments is becoming part of many construction projects. Additionally non-destructive testing and evaluation (NDT, NDE) of many in service structures is increasing representing a larger share of the engineering business. Nevertheless, few universities offer a course on instrumentation as part of their engineering curriculum; so many engineers learn instrumentation through the school of hard knocks. The course combines elements from civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering together with more...
