2-Day Workshop on

Design of Concrete Structures


- Eurocodes versus British Standards
Introduction
On 20 October 2006, Building and Construction Authority (BCA) issued an advisory note to
construction industry personnel stating that BCA would be adopting BS EN version of the Eurocodes
and is planning to specify them in the Approved Documents of the Building Control Regulations
after the corresponding British Standards are withdrawn.
To prepare local structural engineering practitioners for the adoption of the Eurocodes in the
design of reinforced concrete building structures, this 2-day workshop will approach the design
of concrete building structures using Eurocodes in a comparison with BS 8110, which has been
a familiar code of practice in Singapore. The workshop will contain lectures as well as hands-on
tutorial sessions to provide participants with practical design experience.
This workshop is jointly organised by BCA Academy and Protective Technology Research Centre of
Nanyang Technological University.

Workshop Leader
PROFESSOR TAN KANG HAI obtained his BSc(Eng) and PhD from the University of Manchester,
UK. He is Professor at the School of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Nanyang Technological
University (NTU). He is Director of Protective Technology Research Centre (PTRC) at NTU.
Prior to joining NTU, he worked as a graduate engineer in Ove Arup & Partners, UK. He won the
UK Institution of Structural Engineering Henry Adams Award in May 1989 for his original research
work in structural sandwich panels subjected to lateral loading. This award was based on his PhD
work. He is a registered Professional Engineer in Singapore. He has been involved in several re
engineering consultancy works including analysis and design of steel structures in clean room
facilities, storage racks, A&A works on structural re resistance aspect at Changi Terminal 1
and consultancy to HDB on the upgrading of SECAD computer system to Eurocode for structural
concrete. He served as Chairman of a few task force groups on Eurocodes relating to structural
re applications. He is currently working with Ministry of Home Affairs and Defence Science and
Technology Agency on mitigating progressive collapse of building structures due to blast.
He has written over 100 SCI international journal papers and another 100 international conference
articles on structures. His research topics include behaviour and modelling of steel, concrete
and composite structures under re conditions, strut and tie modelling of reinforced concrete
structures, and progressive collapse resistance and numerical simulations of structures subjected
to extreme loading conditions.
