Syllabus：

This 2-day short course aims to introduce key fundamental principles and up-to-date methods of designing structures to address the hazards of a severe impact load, strong ground shaking of an earthquake and fire. Guidance provided by regulatory documents for use by the structural designer for these topics is generally inadequate. The amount of advanced technical education in related topics that can be obtained from an undergraduate engineering degree program is also very limited.

Given that reinforced concrete is the mainstream constructional material in Macau (and Hong Kong) the course content related to impact and earthquakes is based mainly on the design of reinforced concrete structures. Details such as design of steel reinforcement in a reinforced concrete element will be included. In addition, the design for fire resistances in this course will cover both structural concrete and steel. Worked examples have been incorporated to assist in the learning of calculation techniques including the fire limit state design in structural concrete and steel.

Eurocodes are the primary source of references, but other major codes of practice will also be referred to. Given the specialized nature of the topics there are significant amount of materials that cannot be found in textbooks.

Both speakers who are well known in their respective field of expertise with substantial practical experience (and who are familiar with the local construction industry and structural engineering practices) will deliver this short course with the aim of training structural design engineers in Hong Kong to acquire the relevant skills.

Speakers:

Professor Nelson Lam, Department of Infrastructure Engineering, The University of Melbourne, Australia

Associate Professor Bill Wong was Director of Teaching and Deputy Head, Department of Civil Engineering at Monash University, Melbourne before he retired in 2017.

Professor Ben Young is currently the Associate Dean of the Graduate School at The University of Hong Kong (HKU). He is a professor of structural engineering in the Department of Civil Engineering, HKU.
