PDH UNITS: 3

Learn how to assess the structural safety of existing buildings--with or without the drawings available. This online structural engineering course developed by Professor Metwally explores the structural evaluation of existing concrete structures and how you can conduct a successful assessment even in the absence of drawings. Topics covered in this course include the 3 main reasons why engineers evaluate existing concrete structures and how you can best assess and report on each:

  1. Repair/rehabilitation is needed
  2. Change in building use/occupancy
  3. Sustainable construction

Course Outline

  • Preliminary Assessment
  • Study of Documents and Visual Inspection
  • Preliminary Inspection
  • Preliminary Checks
  • Decisions on Immediate Actions
  • Recommendations for Detailed Assessment
  • Detailed Assessment
  • Detailed Documentary Search and Review
  • Actual Materials Properties
  • Determination of Capacity of the Structures
  • Structural Analysis using Analytical Models (Finite Element Models)
  • Verification
  • Results of Assessment
  • Report
  • Conceptual Design of Construction Interventions
  • Control of Risk

Learning Objectives

At the successful conclusion of this course, you’ll be able to:
  • Identify which structural parameters and properties to obtain when evaluating the structural performance of existing concrete.
  • Understand destructive and nondestructive test methods for sampling and gathering data and how to apply them in practice.
  • Conduct a preliminary and more detailed assessment and write a technical report.
  • Determine whether or not a structure is structurally safe and the need for structural repair, retrofitting, and demolition.
  • Pinpoint industry publications offering guidelines and techniques for obtaining information related to evaluating existing structures.
