Curriculum
Programme Structure
The programme is structured in 5 modules, listed below in order of study.
01
Fundamentals of comprehensive infrastructure maintenance and risk-based asset management
- Typologies of infrastructure and operational criticality - buildings, installations, roads, ports and industrials
- Principles of corrective, preventive, predictive and proactive maintenance applied to infrastructures
- Physical asset management: Technical inventory, hierarchy and functional coding of systems
- Criticality and Prioritization Analysis: Impact on Security, Continuity, Cost and Regulatory Compliance
- Technical documentation and traceability: plans, manuals, historical, work orders and evidence
02
Technical Inspection, Pathology Diagnosis and Evaluation of Structural and Functional Condition
- Inspection Methodologies: Visual, Instrumental, Sampling and Condition Scheduled Campaigns
- Pathologies in structures and enclosures: cracking, corrosion, settlements, humidity and fatigue
- Non-destructive tests and diagnostic techniques: Thermography, ultrasound, endoscopy and on-site measurements
- Risk and Safety Assessment: Critical Hazards, Use Restrictions and Intervention Decisions
- Technical reports: findings, severity classification, recommendations and action plans
03
Maintenance planning and operational scheduling with lifecycle cost approach
- Maintenance Master Plan: Scope, Frequencies, Resources, Spare Parts and Intervention Windows
- Programming and sequencing of jobs: routes, stops, interference, permissions and multi-area coordination
- Budgeting and economic control: CAPEX/OPEX, deviations, forecasts and control by work packages
- Management of spare parts and technical warehouse - criticality, levels, obsolescence and agreements with suppliers
- Outsourcing and maintenance contracts: SLAs, KPIs, penalties, performance management and audits
04
Maintenance of systems and technical installations - energy, air conditioning, hydraulics and protection
- Electrical systems - panels, protections, grounding, power quality and safe maintenance
- HVAC and ventilation: performance, balance, filters, heat exchange and energy optimisation
- Hydraulic networks and sanitation: pumps, valves, leaks, losses and control of water quality
- Fire Protection: Inspections, Functional Testing, Detection, Extinguishing and Mandatory Records
- Envelope and accessibility: Decks, waterproofing, gaskets, carpentry and preventive maintenance
05
Optimisation, digitization and continuous improvement of infrastructure maintenance
- Predictive maintenance and monitoring: sensors, thresholds, alarms and condition models
- Applied Data Analytics: Trends, Anomaly Detection, Reliability and Decision Making
- Energy management and sustainability: efficiency, maintenance oriented to saving and measurement of performance
- Operational standardisation: SOPS, checklists, lessons learned and change control
- Management of intervention projects: scope, quality, schedule, risks and technical reception
