This half-day online course provides a theoretical framework for rapid problem-solving concept calculations.

Applying this to practical exercises, attendees will learn how to undertake rapid calculations for different structural members using a small scheme as an example and considering deflection, limit, and materials.

Learning outcomes

By the end of the course, you should be able to: 

  • ​Understand the difference between rapid concept calculations and detailed design calculations

  • Employ a useful framework for rapid calculations using typical structural design problems

  • Use your own experience to inform your rapid design calculations

  • Consider the types of questions to ask and have the confidence to answer them quickly

Intended for

  • Graduate engineer

  • Mid-career engineer
