Overview

The construction of multi-storied buildings is reaching new heights. Factors such as construction speed, self-weight, deflections, and wall thickness are critical, making smart wall systems a more viable option compared to traditional brick masonry. What are the current design practices? What methods, systems, and procedures are used? What are the advantages and disadvantages? To address these questions and provide a systematic understanding of the subject, this free hybrid CPD training course on smart wall systems in multi-storied buildings has been arranged.

The undersigned—a PhD graduate from the University of London, Chartered Engineer (CEng), and a member of MICE and MASCE—has half a century of professional experience. These courses are conducted under a license from the Pakistan Engineering Council and in the capacity of country representative of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). These courses can be used towards your ICE CPD record and earning credit points related to the Pakistan Engineering Council. These courses aim to elevate local engineers to a global standard and are offered at no cost to participants, with no commercial gain for the instructor.

This specific course is open to engineers of any discipline—whether registered with the Pakistan Engineering Council or not—diploma holders, supervisors, and advanced-year students.

Participants will receive the course materials upon registration, allowing sufficient time to review the content before the course begins.

Course content:

  • Technologies superior to traditional brick masonry
  • Materials and systems: insulated panels, cement sandwich panels, and cold room panels
    Codes and Standards
  • Technical details and installation guides
  • Advantages, disadvantages, risks, and failures
  • Quality control and testing

Programme:

  • Day 1: Course discourse and instruction 
  • Day 2: Presentations from volunteering participants based on assignments given on Day 1, followed by discussions
