•Programming, resource implications, time cost applications and project acceleration, financial risks
•Risk management strategy: hazard and risk, definitions and interpretation, strategic risks, political and business implications of risks, understanding the management strategy;
•Current practices of risk management: what it is; why it is used; how it is applied; when it should be undertaken; and who should be responsible for it, including the deployment of appropriate practices and procedures for the effective management of risk in construction
•Risk perception and identification, risk analysis and assessment, qualitative assessment, quantitative assessment, risk outcomes

Work Based Learning Structures - 6204CIV

Work Based Learning Structures

Exercise initiative, personal responsibility and leadership skills as a member of a design team, and critically evaluate the success of team working.

Critically analyse the design process and apply it to complex structural elements using a variety of building materials and under different environmental and loading conditions.

Apply knowledge and understanding of risk issues to engineering design, and critically evaluate current practices of risk management

Produce and critically review safe and economical design in accordance with the current codes of practice.
