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.
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

Mid-career engineer
Rachael De’Ath has more than 20 years of design experience working for Arup, and more recently Marbas as well as three years lecturing at the University of Bristol teaching design and has continued her role as a visiting lecturer. She has a broad range of experience but prefers to work on existing buildings where she uses her skills and experience to reimagine the existing structure into something new. She was named as one of the Women’s Engineering Society’s ‘Top 50 female engineers’ in 2018 and is an active member of her local IStructE regional group committee.

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.
This course covers aspects of the geotechnical and structural design of spread and piled foundations. It is tailored for engineers working in small practices. The content is compliant with Eurocodes 2 and 7, with opportunities for comparisons with relevant British Standards.
This one-day, online course offers an introduction to timber design to Eurocode 5.
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.
The course takes place as a series of two-hour interactive sessions over four weeks supported by independent study. The course introduces a number of drawing techniques and systems. It will increase your confidence in your sketching abilities.
This course provides participants with detailed knowledge of masonry design to Eurocode 6 Standards and the National Annexes.
This course covers the design of common structural elements to Eurocode 2. Participants will be introduced to concrete material properties and learn about designing for durability and fire.
This two-day course shows engineers how to arrive at a qualitative solution to both create a structure and check computational results.
This practical course helps structural engineers to confidently approach a refurbishment or reuse project, looking at the initial steps to understand an existing structure, how to apply basic conservation principles and the design implications and considerations.
