Advanced Engineering of Concrete Steel Asphalt and Innovative Construction Materials Training Course

The performance, safety, and service life of any structure are shaped as much by the materials it is built from as by its design, which is why a solid grasp of Construction Materials is essential for every civil and materials engineer. This training course gives participants a complete, practical grounding in the engineering behavior of the major construction materials, connecting material properties directly to real selection, specification, and performance decisions on site.

Participants will strengthen their understanding of metallurgy as it applies to structural steel and reinforcement behavior, and will build practical competency in evaluating polymers and modern composites used in construction applications. The course places strong emphasis on the engineering properties and quality control of concrete, alongside the structural behavior and detailing considerations of steel, giving engineers a well-rounded view across traditional and advanced construction materials.

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
