Why Select this Training Course?

Industrial building design and renovation involve the strategic planning, construction, and refurbishment of facilities tailored for industrial activities. It includes optimising layouts, workflow efficiency, and safety while addressing storage demands, environmental concerns, and energy conservation. Renovation initiatives may focus on modernisation, enhancing infrastructure, or repurposing existing spaces to align with evolving industry standards. The overarching aim is to create versatile, efficient, and secure environments conducive to industrial operations. By integrating innovative design elements and sustainable practices, industrial building design and renovation endeavours aim to meet the dynamic needs of businesses while maximising productivity and resource utilisation.

The current challenge in industrial building design and renovation involves the imperative to update ageing infrastructure in various sectors like oil & gas, power generation, and manufacturing. As many industrial facilities are near the end of their lifespan, there is a pressing demand for innovative solutions to rejuvenate these structures. This includes addressing concerns related to structural integrity, energy efficiency, environmental sustainability, and compliance with evolving regulations.

This Rcademy Industrial Building Design and Renovation Certification Training Course will expose the participants to emerging skills and expertise in design methodologies and their application across various building types. The training course will cover techniques for choosing an appropriate structural system and developing the overall layout, implementing load combinations according to IBC/UBC/ASCE standards, evaluating and designing industrial buildings and techniques, materials for repairing concrete/steel structures, structural inspection, and approaches to structural rehabilitation.

What is building system design in civil engineering?

Building system design in civil engineering encompasses the holistic approach to integrating and coordinating various subsystems within a building. It involves understanding the interactions between structural elements, electrical systems, mechanical components, plumbing networks, and HVAC systems to create a cohesive and efficient design. Civil engineers analyse factors such as building usage, environmental conditions, occupant comfort, energy efficiency, and sustainability goals to develop integrated solutions that meet the project’s requirements. This process requires interdisciplinary collaboration with architects, mechanical and electrical engineers, contractors, and other stakeholders to achieve a harmonious and functional design that enhances the overall quality of the built environment.

Why is building system design important?

Building system design is essential as it serves as the foundation of any structure, directly influencing its functionality, efficiency, safety, and sustainability. Firstly, it ensures structural integrity by distributing loads, accommodating movement, resisting external forces, safeguarding occupants and preventing structural failures. Secondly, efficient design optimises energy consumption and resource utilisation, reducing operational costs and environmental impact.

Who should attend?

  • Design engineers who are tasked with creating detailed plans and specifications for engineering projects, ensuring that they meet client requirements and comply with relevant codes and standards.
  • Consultant engineers charged with providing expert advice and technical guidance to clients on engineering projects, offering solutions to complex challenges and helping to optimise project outcomes.
  • Architects tasked with designing aesthetic and functional aspects of buildings, ensuring they meet clients’ requirements and regulatory standards.
  • Civil engineers trusted with designing, constructing, and maintaining infrastructure projects and systems in both the public and private sectors, including roads, buildings, and systems for water supply and sewage treatment.
  • Structural engineers charged with ensuring a building or structure can withstand the loads and forces it will encounter during its lifetime.
  • Construction managers tasked with planning, coordinating, budgeting and supervising construction projects from start to finish, focusing on timelines and project deliverables.
  • Project managers who oversee all aspects of a project, from planning and budgeting to implementing and tracking, ensuring the project meets designated outcomes.
