Non-Award
Gain specialist skills in prefab and modular building construction, focusing on sustainability, cost-efficiency, and practical design experience. Delivered online over six weeks, this course includes CPD hours and aligns with Australian standards.
Gain the specialist skills sought by employers in the construction sector for designing prefab buildings.
The ability to plan, design, and manufacture buildings off-site helps drive sustainability and significantly reduces project costs.
Prefab and modular construction enables building design professionals to design cost-effective, energy-efficient, and quick to build structures.
Ideal for structural designers who want practical experience using the latest technologies to design prefabricated and modular buildings. Civil engineers, production managers, construction and engineering students, and field inspectors will also find value in this course.
Delivered online over six weeks, this program supports self-learning activities facilitated by lecture videos and interactive webinars. This course also counts for 12 CPD (continuing professional development) hours for Engineers Australia Members. Learning is mapped to Australian standards for structural design requirements.
Please note, you will not need to purchase additional software to participate in this course. Access to all essential materials will be provided.

Be introduced to the principles of prefab and modular building construction and its structural design. With the aid of industry-recognised software, you will analyse practical case studies to enhance your understanding of crucial concepts, including conceptual design, hinge assembly DfMA design, and integrated design of timber and steel prefab structural systems.
Learn basic concepts behind the assessment of loads and support conditions that apply to prefab units during their transportation, lifting and handling. Apply these concepts to practical scenarios to ensure minimum damage to prefab units during all stages of manufacturing and installation.
Explore a range of facade systems including fully offsite manufactured facades. Understand their functions and gain a sharper understanding of relevant prefab technologies. You'll use your new knowledge to assess the performance of facades and their components.
Participate in an online and interactive design workshop where you'll demonstrate your new and existing knowledge of prefab and modular building construction to leading industry professionals. Discuss your thoughts and ideas with them and gain useful feedback.
