Credit points: 16.00
Contact: 24 hours of lectures and 12 hours of tutorials in each semester with 12 hours of laboratory work in the second semester
Timetable: Double semester.
Objectives:
At the conclusion of this course students should be able to analyse for the internal actions produced in determinate and indeterminate truss and frame structures and the resultant deformations associated with a variety of loading states using both manual and computer aided methods of analysis and to be able to design simple structural elements (such as slabs, beams, columns, ties and connections) in steel, reinforced and pre-stressed concrete (as applicable) in accordance with the appropriate Standard codes of practice.
Content:
Linear structural analysis. Computer applications in design. Concrete structures and concrete technology. Steel structures, connections and welding technology. Non-elastic and plastic behaviour and collapse analysis.
Assessment:
two two-hour examinations; one at the end of Semester one and one at the end of Semester two. Practical work and tests during the year.
