By the end of the course, you should be able to:
Appreciate how forces due to gravity and other effects are resisted in a building’s structure
Demonstrate a knowledge of the tools available to the structural engineer to counter these effects
Appreciate the concept of efficient design and its impact on embodied energy
Appreciate finite element analysis methods
Develop an appreciation of key engineering concepts and terminology

Chris O’Regan has been working in the field of structural engineering for over 35 years and draws from his experience from developing structures for a large variety of buildings ranging from music halls through to stadia and everything in between. Chris created this course to highlight the need for greater integration in the design of buildings in the wake of Building Safety Act 2022. Chris has been actively involved with advising construction professionals on the impact the Building Safety Act will have in how it will impact the method of design of buildings.

This half-day in-person course provides guidance to early-career structural engineers to develop a better understanding of geotechnical engineering and use that knowledge to enhance and promote sustainable design.
This two-day course is an essential introduction to the conceptual design process for bridges. It covers two key areas: selecting a structural form to suit the constraints of a site and arranging materials and components to meet the demands of the structure in an elegant and logical way.
This one-day online course introduces timber as an engineering material, with a focus on its use in historic structures. It covers non-destructive techniques for condition assessment and strategies for the reuse of heritage structures.
This course gives guidance on the key design and constructability considerations when planning the construction of deep (greater than 5 meters) basements. It covers various types of embedded walls for both bottom-up and top-down construction.
This course gives guidance on the key considerations when planning the construction of deep basements. It covers using both embedded wall bottom-up and top-down construction in accordance with Eurocodes 2 and 7.
This course delivers key advice and guidance on seismic design of structures to Eurocode 8 as well as the application of the Eurocode. Emphasis is placed on reinforced concrete buildings although the concepts are widely applicable.
This one-day, online advanced practical workshop teachs complex timber engineering through worked examples. It encourages problem-solving through teaching tools and group discussion.
This course equips attendees with practical knowledge about structural design with bamboo stems (culms). The course considers aspects of concept design, detailed design and durability by design.
