Industry CPD: Numerical modelling of joints for structural design using CBFEM

To mark the 100th anniversary of The Structural Engineer , Alan Rathbone looks back at several key papers that helped advance the development of plastic design of steel portal frames.

This CPD module, sponsored by SCIA, explores the productivity benefits that structural engineers could gain by adopting a parametric approach to design.

This one-day, online course examines changes between BS 5950 and Eurocode 3. The emphasis is on buildings and the provision of general rules for buildings of EN 1993-1-1 and design of joints to EN 1993-1-8.
