Inspection, Repair and Rehabilitation of Marine Structures

This workshop focuses on using real life examples to demonstrate how inspection methods are used to assess the condition of existing marine structures in order to develop a repair & maintenance program necessary to meet operational requirements.

Course Outline

After participating in this course, you will be able to: • develop the knowledge to evaluate and undertake condition inspections of existing marine structures
• apply the materials and methods/strategies used in the repair and rehabilitation of concrete, steel and timber
   marine structures
• develop repair and rehabilitation programs for existing marine structures by gaining practical ideas from case studies

Description Repairs and rehabilitation of structures subjected to a marine environment are common practice. Various components of a structure typically begin to deteriorate soon after it has been constructed. Marine structures can also suffer physical damage as a result of overloading, ship impacts, adverse weather conditions, and environmental effects.  

This workshop focuses on using real life examples to demonstrate how inspection methods are used to assess the condition of existing marine structures in order to develop a repair/rehabilitation and maintenance program necessary to meet operational requirements and to maintain or extend the remaining service life an existing marine structure.

Objective To provide the knowledge required for developing and implementing suitable repair and rehabilitation programs for existing marine structures.

Who Should Attend Project managers,  design engineers, civil and structural engineers, construction engineers, geotechnical engineers, consulting engineers, managers of maintenance, repair and rehabilitation of marine structures, inspectors, technicians and technologists, and contractors. This seminar will be of benefit to government personnel and private sector organizations interested in marine structures.

Special Feature You receive practical, real-world information on design considerations, construction techniques, inspection, repair and rehabilitation of existing marine structures, that will builds your confidence and competence. You find your professional concerns answered in the case studies presented in the workshop.

Program Outline Day 1

Registration and Coffee

Welcome, Introduction, Workshop Preview, Learning Outcomes and the Assessment Method

• An overview of the basic principles and causes of deterioration and damage to various types of marine structures.

• The use of inspection methods and techniques to assess the condition of an existing marine structure and estimate the
   remaining service life.

• An overview of common repair practices and preventative protection measures used to prolong the service life of an existing marine structure.

• Highlight the basics of life cycle management and the benefits of regular inspection and maintenance programs for existing marine structures.

Day II

• Design Consideration and construction techniques that will minimize deterioration
   Participants in small groups will discuss design considerations and construction techniques followed by group presentations and discussion

• Case studies to illustrate repair and rehabilitation strategies used to meet operational requirements and extend the service life of
   existing marine structures.
  
   Participants in small groups will discuss repair and rehabilitation strategies to extend the life of marine structures followed by group
   presentations and discussion
