Returning for 2024 this seminar is a refresher on the use of AS 4100 designed to put the basics of engineering theory into the context of how they apply to the clauses of AS 4100. This will assist designers when using AS 4100 to appreciate the applicability of relevant clauses and help with many ‘grey areas’ of design. The seminar will improve designer knowledge in the fundamental but critical aspects of analysis and steel design whilst maintaining a practical application to real structures. A balanced weighting of all aspects of the design process will be provided so that attendees leave educated on the approach and application of AS 4100 Steel Structures Design rules in determining the design capacity and structural adequacy of steel elements.
Who should attend? The seminar will be beneficial for all structural engineers, particularly those who are not frequent users of AS 4100 or need their skills updated. For experienced engineers, this is your opportunity to get expert feedback on issues of concern or clarification of code requirements.
For regular users of AS 4100, the seminar will provide higher level background understanding facilitating application of advanced methods and intent for extraordinary situations. The seminar will also include awareness of the expected revisions to AS 4100.
