Subject coordinator: Ali Saleh
This subject combines computer modelling and civil engineering design for senior Engineering students. Students learn the basic concepts necessary to develop and apply computer models to prepare a complete structural engineering design. Building on subjects they have completed earlier, students learn to integrate their engineering knowledge to design a multistorey building or an industrial enclosure. They are guided by a team of academic staff through a wide range of fundamental design aspects covering the design of foundation and structural elements, design loads, water drainage and the preparation of design drawings.
Assessment: Typically this subject is assessed through a combination of project work and an examination.
