Structural Analysis II

3 credits · Undergraduate

This course explores the following advanced concepts of structural analysis: shear flow and deformation; St. Venant torsion and warping torsion; beams on an elastic foundation; shear wall analysis; and elasto-plastic analysis. Students are introduced to the finite element method, and structural dynamics including mode shapes, natural frequencies, lumped mass models, modal analysis, and response spectra. This course includes a mandatory tutorial section. Prerequisite(s): Admission to an Engineering program; ENGR 320-3; MATH 220-3 Preclusion(s): CIVE 321-3
