Advanced Diploma of Civil and Structural Engineering (Materials Testing) (Online)

This course prepares students to competently test and select construction materials for a range of projects, including bridges, roads, tunnels, and commercial and domestic structures. Students will become familiar with the attributes of conventional and emerging materials. They will also study the relevant industry standards, and the necessary quality controls across construction applications.

The civil construction sector is responsible for all infrastructure and building projects and therefore plays an important role in global economies. To reduce the environmental impacts of these projects the use of eco-friendly construction materials and practices are becoming increasingly important.
Materials testing is a vital aspect of sustainable construction practices, it helps to ensure that construction projects use materials that are environmentally responsible, energy-efficient, and long-lasting. Furthermore, to conserve natural resources and reduce waste, it helps in the identification of materials that can be recycled or reused.
This course investigates the properties of construction materials, it considers the principles which underpin a range of construction projects, and looks at the associated technical documentation. On completion of the course a graduate will have the capacity to compare materials and practices for sustainability and for the optimal development of buildings and infrastructure.
The delivery methodology — live and interactive webinars with the use of state-of-the-art technologies (including remote and virtual laboratories and simulation software) — ensure you graduate with cutting-edge skills that are valued by employers around the world.
