Description

Analyze the concept of durability of materials to extend the service life of a building, making it more environmentally sustainable" 

##IMAGE##

The sustainability of a building or construction is a global concept that has many implications, involving factors such as the choice of materials and construction processes, the urban environment, the management and reuse of natural resources, among others. This process becomes palpable from the very moment the engineer and architect begin the planning and design of the structure. In all industrialized countries, the aging of buildings occurs and the repair of which entails enormous economic costs. Therefore, an adequate maintenance plan is based on estimating the service life of construction works in time. 

In addition, and following the same criteria of sustainability and safety, there is also a growing demand to determine more accurately the durability of structural concrete in new projects. This is what we cover at the start of the postgraduate certificate, exposing the main factors that can affect the strength of reinforced concrete. Then, we will address the different options to ensure the maintenance of a construction site in order to predict the durability of the structures. For this we will present different case studies.

With a 100% online postgraduate certificate students will be able to study comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality according to the current times with all the guarantees to position the engineer in a highly demanded sector.
