Following failures in reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) planks/panels, SCOSS issued an alert along with reports of failures to CROSS. This led to the Institution setting up this study group to provide a place for information and guidance on RAAC. You do not need to be a member of the Institution in order to join the study group - it is open to all. Join the group to receive updates Further information on RAAC
This free guidance provides identification and remediation solutions for Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC) planks. RAAC has been used in building structures in the UK and Europe since the late 1950’s, most commonly as precast roof panels in flat...
This report provides further guidance on the critical risk factors associated with RAAC panel construction. It includes a proposed approach to the classification of these risk factors and how these may impact on the proposed remediation and management of RAAC....
The latest RAAC guidance and how to mitigate risk moving forward.
Learn how to identify, assess, manage and remediate reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) defects in buildings.
You can confidentially share your experiences on RAAC planks with CROSS
This two-day course shows engineers how to arrive at a qualitative solution to both create a structure and check computational results.
This course provides guidance on specific aspects of demolition and refurbishment from an engineering perspective, while addressing safety, environmental and sustainability influences.
This course is designed to provide structural engineers with a greater understanding of fire safety, key legislation, and the principles of risk analysis in order to ensure that adequate structural performance in fire is achieved. Participants will examine case studies of structural and non-structural failures as a result of fire.
