Basics of Bridge Engineering

Bridge Engineering is the key discipline branching out from civil engineering and it involves the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of bridges to ensure safe and effective transportation of vehicles, people and goods. The course modules provide a high-level overview of Bridge engineering and cover details like Element of Bridges, Type of Bridges, Siting of Bridges, Analysis of Bridge Structure, Influence Line Diagram, Design of Deck Slab, Design of T Girder, etc. Module 1: Bridge Engineering and Design The first module starts with Siting Criteria of the bridge of details out various reasons to select a particular location as a preferred site for bridge against many other locations. It shows a flow chart to filter out the less feasible locations and drill down to the preferred site location. The module also covers details of various types of bridges and key reasons to select one type of bridge over the others. Module 2: Bridge Elements The second module details the elements of the Bridges. The Element of Bridges is an exhaustive list, so Superstructure, Expansion Joints, Bearings are covered in the second module and the remaining elements are covered next module. Module 3: Bridge Elements The third module covers the remaining elements of the Bridges. Sub-structure, Foundation and secondary elements are covered in this module. Module 4: Steps of Bridge Design The fourth module covers Hydraulics analysis of river flow is discussed to calculate the maximum discharge of river flow. Thereafter, the loading of parameters of the bridge deck and girders are discussed. The module also covers the Finite Element Analysis. The objective of Finite Element Analysis is to find a localized failure, in the bridge due to a vehicular impact and how detailed modelling can help to determine all possible failures.

Broad View of Civil Engineering

The Course Modules are designed to assist students to understand Broad division of Civil Engineering, capability enhancement of Civil Engineering disciplines and collaborative working practices. The course also provides details of various design stages, contract process, Road Safety Audit, Risk & Mitigation measures. The first module covers the identification of appropriate discipline in Civil Engineering and capability enhancement process of identified disciplines. it also covers all the stage of a civil engineering project from concept design to route selection to preliminary design, tender and construction stage. The second module provides a comprehensive process of the preliminary design of a new greenfield road development project. It covers all the key stages such as route selection stage, identification of preferred route, bridge design option, comparison of model benefits and BCR, public consultation of preferred routes, PD design of final option and road safety audit stage-1. The third module covers a comprehensive process of the detailed design of a new greenfield road development project. It covers all the key stages of detailed design, tender process, construction process and operation & maintenance stages. It also provides details of the most popular type of tender process such as Traditional Contract, Design and Build Contract and Public-Private Partnership Contract. The fourth module covers the complete process of road safety audit stage 2. These are the review of RSA-1, review of designer response RSA-1, review of DD stage-2 drawings and models. It also covers key project risks and mitigation measure such as design risk & mitigations, project risk & mitigations, commercial risk & mitigations, construction risk & mitigations, road user risk & mitigations.

MS Project - Basics

A Project is an undertaking, carried out individually or collectively as a team to achieve a goal. Every company or firm carry out projects activities every day either properly or casually. Every project requires detailed project planning in order to run the project more effectively and efficiently. Project planning provides organizations with a framework for scoping projects, sequencing activities, utilizing resources, and minimizing risks. This is a basic course covering key concepts of project planning using MS Project as a tool. A hands-on civil engineering project program is developed and step by step process is explained for the student to learn how to plan, analyse, and manage projects. Students will witness state-of-the-art methodologies to develop the project program. In the first module, students will learn about the following topics -Launching MS Project, start-up window, quick access toolbar, Ribbons and Menu, Options settings, etc. The second module provides a quick process to develop a civil engineering project with key design tasks. The course then explains the key parameters of a task and how one task is linked with another task. Please click to see the Preview of the Course. In the third module, students will learn task dependencies. How the function like start to start or start to finish etc works. The course also provides details of task constraint in civil engineering project environment and how to incorporate that in the project program. The fourth module provides a detailed process of sub-task development and how to link those sub-tasks within the main task. The course develops a situation where a sub-task comes with a constraint and explain the process to deal with the constraint without impacting the project duration. The project belongs to a civil engineering environment so it would be very useful for a student to correlate it with real-time project scenarios. The fifth module provides a detailed process of splitting a task. This is extremely critical for a task if it needs to be delivered in phases due to interlinking with other tasks. The course also provides a process of task formatting to make it unique against other tasks to easily identify it. The sixth module details out the meaning of free slack in the program and its advantage. The module explains the process of how to utilise free slack in a project program to effectively add any new task without affecting the overall duration of the project. The seventh module details the process of resource allocation. In this module, resources are assigned for a particular task of a civil engineering project and team members of different grades are assigned to carry out a task. The process will assist the student to understand how to assign a time frame to all team members to complete a task. The eighth module provides a detailed process of optimising resources. By doing this, key members of the team could be free up for carrying out another project. This would help the project team to efficiently utilize limited resources at any given time.
