Metallurgy for Non Metallurgists
Metals and alloys are used in the greatest variety of applications of all engineering materials. As such it is essential for those involved in manufacturing, engineering and construction to have an understanding of what metals (ferrous and non-ferrous) are, how they behave, and why they behave differently than ceramics, glass, and plastics.
Learn MoreUnderstanding the Metallurgy of Steel
This course explores the metallurgy of steels and how this relates to the failures that have been observed in a number of steel structures. With an understanding of steel metallurgy, structural engineers will be better positioned to advise clients in a procurement environment which has opened up to significant Internationalisation.
Learn MoreIntroduction to Heat Treatment
Steel is the most common and the most important structural materials. In order to properly select and apply this basic engineering material, it is necessary to have a fundamental understanding of the structure of steel and how it can be modified to suit its application. The course is designed as a basic introduction to the fundamentals of steel heat treatment and metallurgical processing.
Learn MorePrinciples of Failure Analysis
This course is designed to provide the knowledge to bridge the gap between theory and practice of failure analysis. This course presents a very practical approach to failure analysis for those who are new to the field or those who want an update. It is also designed for technicians with the pre-requisites and those interested in understanding how knowledge of failure analysis can lead to better productivity. Causes of fractures are explained with diagrams of stress application and distribution. Many case histories of failures and their elimination are highlighted throughout the course.
Learn MoreUnderstanding Test Certificates
A one day course intended for inspectors, supply officers and all those who use standards to specify materials provided by others. It outlines the type of information that test certificates contain and considers the meaning of test result variations from the specification. The course has been prepared by practical consultants who have both prepared and interpreted test certificates over many years.
