创新的设计允许使用更多有趣且实用的架构，但对传统的消防安全概念提出了挑战。为了满足这些需求，需要具备专业知识和工程分析方面的高级技能。该计划涵盖了消防科学的基础知识，包括实验室课程，消防安全工程和相关的结构工程主题，例如有限元方法。您将了解结构消防安全工程中的关键问题，并了解相关的火灾和结构行为。您将熟悉基于性能的设计方法，并对结构和火灾的相关高级建模方法的功能和局限性有所了解。
Innovative design allows more interesting and functional architecture but challenges traditional concepts of fire safety. To respond to these demands takes specialist knowledge and advanced skills in engineering analysis. This programme covers the fundamentals of fire science, including laboratory classes, fire safety engineering and relevant structural engineering topics, such as finite element methods. You will gain knowledge of the critical issues in structural fire safety engineering, and an understanding of relevant fire and structural behaviours. You will become familiar with performance-based approaches to design and have an awareness of the capabilities – and limitations – of relevant advanced modelling methods for structures and fire.
