P C W William Mc Coventry U ..../n Materials 3 Health and Safety risk management and general conduct: • Visit the location in good weather & daylight and remain on public property to perform the inspection. • If visiting the location on your own, let someone know where you are going. Visual Inspection Task • If challenged by a member of the public be courteous and respectful when you explain what you are doing but if you are requested to leave, do so. When taking photographs be respectful of people's privacy and do not photograph people. It is not illegal to photograph from public property/in a public place unless it is for criminal or terrorist purposes. • Do not cause any damage to the material or structure by attempting an intrusive inspection. The inspection is visual only. This brief is for both Materials 3 modules: 6023EXQ Materials 3 (MEng/BEng) and 6024EXQ Materials 3 (BSc). Differences in the brief and the tasks you should complete on the MEng/BEng module are identified by [ ... ]*. There is no coursework associated with this task, but a test question will account for 30% of the marks. 1. Learning outcomes associated with this task All module learning outcomes are relevant, but specifically number 3: 1. Explain the degradation processes that may occur in materials. 2. Specify materials and construction practice to achieve a sustainable and durable built environment asset. 3. [Critically]* assess the in-service performance of a material, diagnose the reasons for failure and articulate an appropriate repair/replacement procedure. [...]* for 6023EXQ MEng/BEng students What is meant by "critically assess" for this task? Explain and justify your statements. Link them to relevant theoretical principles and comparison to other examples of similar instances referenced from other sources (such as examples from the tutorial questions or other publication sources). When stating findings or recommendations refer to the evidence from your observations to justify your statements. 2. Procedure 2.1 Select a location to perform the visual inspection Suggested possible material degradation assets that can be used for this assessment are shown in Figure 1, 2 and 3. You are free to use any of them, or any other suitable location that enables you to achieve the learning outcomes and complete the task. [As last resort you may use an example from the Tutorial questions. Not recommended for 6023EXQ students as you may need these examples as part of your critical assessment.]* 2.2 Prepare your answer to the test question It is expected that your answer should require around 2-4 sides of A4 consisting of about 1000 words and annotated images [and references]. You are encouraged to bring your draft answer to the revision tutorial and get constructive feedback from staff and peers. You should bring your answer to the test and submit it as part of the assessment. Tim Davis, 12/9/2022 version 1.01 1 of 5 Materials 3 Test Question [Note differences between 6023EXQ & 6024EXQ Materials 3 modules]*: a) Identify the asset that you inspected and the relevant general information regarding the visit (date and time of the inspection, component type, materials used, prevailing weather conditions). Include annotated image(s) showing the component's location. Describe the deterioration (or the construction defect that is likely to lead to deterioration). Include annotated photographs and/or sketches of the component. (5 marks) b) Identify the degradation mechanism(s) that is causing (or is likely to lead to) deterioration and explain why the specific location & materials are affected. [Justify your answer by referring to relevant theoretical principles and examples of similar deterioration.]* Make reference to the photographic evidence you have included and any assumptions regarding the material specification and construction details that may or may not be apparent in the photographic evidence. (15 marks) c) Recommend [and justify]* an appropriate course of action to improve the long-term durability of the material and component. Possible options include, but are not limited to: ● Do nothing/continue to monitor, Commission further (invasive) tests, ● Visual Inspection Task ● Repair, ● ● Repair and modify, Demolish and replace. Include details of material specification and construction details that should be (have been) employed to achieve long-term durability of the component. This may include referring to any assumptions stated in your answer to part b) about the materials used in the component assuming it was built following best practice. (10 marks) 2.3 Avoiding collusion The test question is an individual assessment but it is expected that you may perform the inspection and discuss your approach to the answer with peers and academic staff in the revision tutorial. However, you should not share your images, notes or answer, thereby removing the risk of excessive similarity between someone else's answer and your own. Any suspected collusion will be investigated for academic misconduct. Ensure that you are aware of the definitions and rules regarding Academic Integrity.
