Structural Analysis

[0.50] credits · Undergraduate

This course provides an introduction to the fundamentals of structural analysis, which focuses on understanding the response of structures to external loads and internal forces. The course will emphasize problem analysis. Students will begin with analysis of statically determinate structures. They will then learn to use force and displacement methods for analysis of statically indeterminate structures. The course includes slope-deflection equations, moment distribution and stiffness methods. Students will gain familiarity with structural analysis software tools.
