This short course is intended to overview modern and effctive procedures for the design for reinforced concrete structures in the oil and gas industry.

The course will include extensive workshops as a hands-on calculation for reinforced concrete elements which are used in the oil and gas industry as pipe rack and ring beam under steel tanks in plant process, foundation under pressure vessels.

This course will equip you with the knowledge in using new tools for designing and reviewing the design for new project or modify the existing one.

Moreover, the design of foundation under all types of vibrating equipment will cover in this course to enable the attendees design or review design the foundation. For those engineers with limited practical experience the course will illustration of real design issues that may assist the designer to provide concrete structure that is safe, economical and constructible. The rule of thumb to check the concrete design with associated check list will deliver.

The course will be started from the basics to ensure the full participation of all attendees.

About course

Reinforced concrete structures are widely used in industrial sector special in oil and gas fild for onshore.

Therefore, the basis of design for concrete structures for strength , serviceability and robustness will be discussed in the scope of codes concept. So ACI, BS, UBC and ASCE will be discussed in to ensure the use of suitable design method to serve our business safety and operability.

This course will train engineers to be familiar with using American Concrete Institute Standard (ACI) and British standard (BS). The concept and basics of codes and standard will be introduced concerning the probability of failure specifially in ACI and BS.

The course will cover the basis of design for retaining wall, liquid tanks, foundation under machines. The integrity management system and risk based inspection with tools of structure evaluation will be discussed in this course.
