Structure Rehabilitation Course

In a world where structures preservation is vital for sustainability and security, the structure rehabilitation course emerges as an essential source of knowledge. An integrated vision of the identification, analysis and solution of pathologies in structural elements is offered, both in the architectural field and in bridges and other constructions. Participants will discover how to diagnose and take corrective measures to repair and reinforce from forged and pillars to foundations, using diverse materials such as wood, concrete and stone. Through four didactic units, a solid basis in fundamental concepts, the detection and treatment of pathologies and reinforcement methodologies, preparing students to face current challenges in construction engineering is constructed. This course is an essential step for those who want to contribute to the conservation and improvement of the built heritage.

- Structural rehabilitation is one of the most important fields in the present and future of construction. While so important is to project and build the constructive elements optimally, it is also essential to carry out the maintenance of buildings and other existing structural constructions in which due to its prolonged use, it becomes inevitable over time the appearance of degradations of some elements and other deterioration that if they are not identified in time and is not assigned an adequate treatment, it can produce that the constructive element can collapse and end in ruin. - The purpose of this course is to discover, know and deepen one of the fundamental areas of construction engineering: the rehabilitation of civil works and structures of civil works. - The student will analyze defects and deterioration in various structural typologies and constructive elements from all the points involved in rehabilitation: from the identification and interpretation of the indications that denote the existence of structural pathologies, associate these symptoms to the causes that have caused it and diagnose the possible repair options and structural reinforcements to stop and alleviate these deterioration. - The student will identify the most common pathologies that can affect the elements of a construction, whether the foundations, forged, pillars of a building. The student will also acquire knowledge to determine the possible treatments or actions to repair these deterioration, both in wood, concrete, and in stone.

The training in "Rehabilitation of Structures" opens different work paths. You can specialize in diagnosis and repair of pathologies in buildings and bridges, in addition to implementing advanced reinforcement techniques. They await roles such as structural consultant, infrastructure rehabilitation expert or as a conservation project manager, backed by your knowledge in critical elements of construction and its maintenance.

The "Structure Rehabilitation" course prepares you to address challenges in infrastructure conservation. You will learn to detect and diagnose pathologies both in buildings and in bridges, as well as plan repairs and reinforcements. You will deepen the key concepts and familiarize yourself with different types of damage, preparing to contribute effectively in the preservation and safety of civil works.

Aimed at professionals in the construction sector, this course on structure rehabilitation deepens in maintenance and repair of buildings and civil works. Study structural pathologies and reinforcements, addressing from fundamental concepts to advanced repair techniques in various materials.
