This talk will focus on the Design for Safety (DfS) process, and how the Project Managers can incorporate this process into the project schedule, without affecting the project delivery date. We also discuss on the criteria and attributes ofthe DfS Professional, so that the GUIDE workshops are effective

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
