This  Assessment, Evaluation, and Repair of Reinforced Concrete Structure online training course will present the methods of inspection and evaluation of buildings. It will diagnose the reason for concrete deterioration or the corrosion of the steel bars to develop a preventive maintenance program. The causes of structural deterioration will be discussed deeply and concentrate on the reason for corrosion and new protection methods to the steel bars. The repair of the reinforced concrete structures recently developed by using new materials will be discussed theoretically and practically, its advantages and disadvantages, and how to use the suitable method.

The assessment of the reinforced concrete structure is now a main challenge to the civil engineer. The repair of reinforced concrete structures has developed in recent years due to the new technology of the materials and the techniques of maintenance and repair. The preventive maintenance strategy, with its target and plan in the scope of the economic perspective, shall be clarified. Moreover, computer programs can be used to manage maintenance. Risk-based inspection techniques will be presented in the scope of the likelihood of building failure, consequences of failure, and the building risk matrix.

This GLOMACS online training course will highlight:

• Technologies of evaluating both of structures composed of concrete or steel
• The value of diagnoses and tests used for inspecting constructions
• Understanding how the inspection as well tests are applicable for different areas of constructions
• Different methods based on theories as well as practice for inspection
• The way to use advanced techniques by some integrated method in the work

By the end of this online training course, the participants will be familiar with:

• Testing and inspection techniques of engineering materials
• The workmanship in building construction
• Non – destructive evaluation (NDE) for the steel and welding
• The capability to inspect the finishing work activity
• Testing and inspection for road construction
• The ways and skills for the inspector

This online training course will utilize a variety of proven online learning techniques to ensure maximum understanding, comprehension, retention of the information presented. The training course is conducted Online via an Advanced Virtual Learning Platform in the comfort of any location of your choice

The impact on the organization in attending this Assessment, Evaluation, and Repair of Reinforced Concrete Structure online training course are the following: 

• Improve the maintenance cost by enhancing the engineering review process
• Improve the maintenance cost by enhancing the construction and materials selection process
• Reduce the maintenance cost by using a new approach for structure assessment
• Increase the structure of capital investment by increasing its lifetime
