PART 1: MECHANICAL GROOVED PIPING SYSTEMSThis seminar provides a comprehensive knowledge of mechanical grooved piping systems. Upon completion of this seminar, each participant will understand the history and anatomy of a grooved joint, and installation process from pipe and grooves inspection all the way through to visual verification of installation.PART 2: FLEXIBLE SPRINKLER FITTINGS SYSTEMSUpon completion of this seminar, each participant will understand the history and the anatomy of the flexible drops, how modern innovation is revolutionizing this Flexible Sprinkler Fitting Systems with new technology, and all the way through to visual verification of installation.

Underground and related structures are of great significance to the local construction industry. Many structures have to be built below ground and their design and construction are of importance to those in the civil engineering profession.Resident Engineers and Resident Technical Officers need to be familiar with the construction and supervision of underground and associated structures, as such foundations, basements, tunnels and earth-retaining structures.

This course covers topics rarely covered to any great extent at undergraduate level. The emphasis is on hand-based methods. They can be used directly for design or for the checking of computer-based designs. However, rather than just providing an alternate design method of equal difficulty to conventional procedures, it will be found that many problems can be tackled surprisingly easily using these powerful methods. The methods are an aid to understanding. Many worked examples are presented showing how the various methods can be used. The emphasis is on the use of the methods for practical problem solving, so little theory is presented. Appropriate reference will also be made to SS EN 1992 series on Design of Concrete Structures

This particular module will discuss the background of this Court of Appeal case and its direct impact on site supervisors as well as their employers. The course will also provide participants with an up-to-date essential knowledge of Singapores laws on negligence and the common law duty of RTO & RE (as well as engineers and other technical professional s) which are relevant to the engineering building construction (ECB) industries and are faced by or connected with ECB projects.

Graduate Certificate program in Construction Productivity Enhancement is open to any Bachelor degree holders, in particular B.Eng. (Civil Engineering) degree and B.Eng. (Environmental Engineering with minor in Civil Infrastructure), or equivalent. It aims at providing knowledge and competitive edge in productivity enhancement as well as in virtual design and construction. Further value-added skills in evaluating economics feasibility and risks in projects will also become an essential part of the programme.

This course aims to highlight the key environmental concerns relating to air and water pollution from construction sites. The scope of the course will cover sources and activities on worksites that generate pollution, as well as the impact of this pollution on our environment. Regulations, management and control measures to address these pollution concerns will also be discussed.

he success of a development project depends largely on the effectiveness of the project manager and the-project team members who are involved in the project. Being a key member of the project team, it is important for the engineer to acquire the knowledge and skills of project management, so that they will be able to work closely with the project manager and contribute positively to the success of the projects.To achieve good quality construction works, it is important for the engineer to be able to manage the design process and supervise the construction work on site effectively. This course will also cover the effective management of design process by the engineers and effective supervision of construction works by the engineers and RTOs.This course will also cover the risk assessment and safety management of construction works, to provide a safe environment for all personnel working on site.In addition, this course will also touch on the skill sets required for managing projects overseas, particularly in China.

Given the nature of most building and construction work, in particular increasingly its specialisation and the use of technically demanding and complex procedures, personnel such as designers, project managers, contractors, subcontractors and supervisory staff are all likely at serious risk of falling short and face with claims. This course is organised to prepare stake-holders including building owners, developers, builders, specialist builders, architects, engineers, project managers and such supervisory personnel as Qualified Persons, Site Supervisors, Resident Engineers and Resident Technical Officers on the understanding of liabilities and duties in regulatory, design, construction and supervision aspects of building and civil engineering works by glimpsing at some of the well-known decided cases.

The objective of the course is to impart knowledge to the participant on the causes, prevention, inspection and rectification of cracks in concrete. In particular, cracking in concrete is explained and the allowance of its formation in design is covered. Cracks formed arising from workmanship issues are also covered. Appropriate references will be made to the Singapore Standard SS EN 1992 series on Eurocode 2 Design of concrete structures that allow cracks to form and possible ways of preventing cracking is also covered. Emphasis on how to assess the severity of the crack through a methodological approach is covered. Finally, various methods of rectification of the crack lines are covered including the appropriateness of the method to the type and nature of the crack being considered.

Singapore is currently, at a transitional and transformational stage for the Digital Revolution into a Smart Nation.With this Smart Nation drive, Azbil identifies the industrys need for innovative ideas and solutions to ensure growth and competitiveness.And within this drive to always remain competitive and always strive for continuous improvement, we will share Azbils latest advanced Building Solutions & Technologies.The key conversation and knowledge that we expect would be acquired here is the ability, the realization of how to harness these advanced technologies and exploit them to the commercial benefit of building owners.This would in regards, enhance Operational Capabilities as well as any working aspects of best Business Practices. Increased manpower efficiency through autonomous optimisation via Artificial Intelligence or (AI) or Big Data Analytics & Predictive Maintenance via Machine-learning or (ML).
