Summary
This MSc degree is aimed at graduates with at least two years of practical experience in construction; however, more recent graduates with a good appreciation of construction processes will also benefit.
Having achieved a firm grounding in engineering you may be keen to develop your skills as a practical engineer working on site or enhance design skills if you are engaged in permanent works design.
The course provides the following:
An introduction to statutory obligations, management methods and special design considerations for temporary works;
Design of structures used in and for temporary works, their construction and monitoring;
Design of geotechnical temporary works and processes, including groundwater control and ground investigation;
Design of temporary works for marine construction, in particular floating structures and the effect of waves and varying water levels;
The use of plant in temporary works and the provision of appropriate working platforms and access;
Demolition and alteration of structures, including the disposal/reuse of construction waste.
