An Interactive 5-Day Training Course
Industrial Building Designs and Renovation
A to Z Steps to Design Steel Buildings
Course Overview
This Industrial Building Designs and Renovation training course is a must for civil engineers working in various industries like oil & gas, power plants, water treatment plants and industrial factories projects. Participants of this workshop will gain advanced knowledge of analysis and design of steel / concrete structures, foundations and basic principles of structures renovation.
This training course will provide sample illustration of real structures that will assist the designer to understand design methodologies and apply it on different types of buildings. The examples to be used would vary from the typical two-dimensional beams and frames to the three-dimensional multistory frames to special systems such as space frames. This training course will present methods for inspection and evaluation of buildings, investigate the causes of structure deterioration and methods of renovation.
This GLOMACS training course will highlight:
- Selecting a suitable structural system and preparing the general layout
- Applying Loads & Load combinations as per IBC / UBC / ASCE
- Analysis and design of industrial buildings
- Methods of Structure Investigation
- Methods of Structure Renovation
- Materials to be used in Concrete / Steel Structures Repair
Training Objectives
At the end of this training course, you will learn to:
- Determine the most convenient geometry, structural system and layout
- Use the American codes to calculate applied loads and load combinations
- Applying loads to structural models as per ASCE / IBC / UBC
- Analyze and Design steel/concrete industrial buildings as per AISC [ASD / LRFD]
- How to investigate & assess industrial building conditions
- Decide appropriate renovation methodologies
Who should Attend?
This training course is designed for civil engineers and professionals working in industrial fields of oil & gas, power plants, water treatment plants and industrial factories projects who are involved in building analysis, design and/or renovation.
This GLOMACS training course is suitable to a wide range of professionals but will greatly benefit:
- Design Engineers
- Consultant Engineers
- Contractor Engineers
- Engineering Services Companies
- Construction Engineers
