Competence, the UK Building Safety Act, and the Institution of Structural Engineers: a timely update

This primer from Allan Mann presents an introduction to the practicalities and demands of erecting steel structures.

The Institution explains how it has been engaging with government and the media to provide insight and advice on the RAAC crisis engulfing the UK's schools.

This course is designed to provide structural engineers with a greater understanding of fire safety, key legislation, and the principles of risk analysis in order to ensure that adequate structural performance in fire is achieved. Participants will examine case studies of structural and non-structural failures as a result of fire.
