Module Code: 6102BEUG

Credit Value: 24.00

 AIMS OF THE MODULE:

To develop and consolidate the structural application, design, ev

analysis introduced at Level 4 and 5 with more advanced appli

masonry, and concrete building elements/structures, using the cu

practice including the EC code of practices.

To emphasize sustainability, health and safety in design of reinfo

masonry, pavement, and steel structures.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

 After completing the module the student should be able to:

1. Critically analyse the design process and apply it to complex struelements using different building materials and under different envand loading conditions.

2. Produce and critically review safe and economical design in accothe current codes of practice.

3 Design more advanced structural elements in reinforced and pre-concrete, masonry, steel structures and pavement engineering for rhighways.

4. Produce and critically review safe and economical designs of struaccordance with the current codes of practice.

Health and Safety Risk Management

Unlike many other industries, construction is still largely pedependent. It is one of the most dangerous industries to wothe construction, maintenance and demolition phases.

For 125 years it has been an icon

of Victorian engineeringexcellence, a symbol of Scotland

and even a favourite expression

for a never-ending task

Now, the Forth Bridge has been granted UNESCO World

Site status, putting it alongside the Pyramids of Egypt, th

When it was opened on 4 March

1890 by the then Prince of Wales,

the Forth Bridge was the longest

cantilever bridge in the world and

the first major crossing made

entirely of steel.

Designed by two English engineers, Sir John Fowler and

Baker, and took 8 years to build at a cost of £3.2m. 71wo

known to have been killed during construction.
