CPD course covering fire engineering, concrete, steel, timber structures and structural design
CROSS-UK was expanded to cover fire safety reporting following recommendations by Dame Judith Hackitt in her post-Grenfell report Building a Safer Future . This month we present a fire safety report illustrating the implications of substituting a product within a tested system without further testing or justification.
Through real-life case studies and examples, learn about the importance of fire safety in structures and how to improve it.
This article, based on the winning entry to the IStructE Excellence in Structural Engineering Education Award 2021, discusses innovative approaches implemented at Stellenbosch University, South Africa to develop technical competency in structural engineering and associated fields.
This sponsored webinar provides an insight into the latest solutions for multi-rise hybrid and timber structures.
Luke Bisby urges structural engineers to improve their understanding of ‘fire resistance’ as the profession looks to innovate rapidly in response to climate change.
This month's letters discuss inspection of fire damage in buildings, floor loadings, building control processes and the benefits of remote learning, among other topics.
This paper attempts to clearly articulate some of the key hazards associated with engineered timber – and show how these may be addressed by competent design professionals.
Mark O’Connor, Director and Head of Specialists in WSP's Property and Buildings business, discusses tools and techniques to design efficient structural fire protection systems.
