Course Overview

Reactive work on concrete structure assessment and repair costs several times what the same job costs when planned. Spares strategy for assessment and repair is an availability decision disguised as a cost decision. Comparative studies of this strand of engineering and maintenance work across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. Progress on concrete structure assessment and repair is usually lost in the gap between approval and execution. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of this part of engineering and maintenance work and prepares them for it. The programme is built to be used, and every section of assessment and repair it covers ends in something applicable. Participants finish able to explain concrete structure assessment and repair to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. It is written for people who have to make assessment and repair work with the resources they already have. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of engineering and maintenance work that each participant writes for their own organisation.
