ENGR 4050 - Structural Analysis

3 credits

The course gives basic knowledge for the analysis of elastic, statically indeterminate structures subjected to static loading. Gravity loads are calculated for structural members based on load paths and tributary areas and applied to basic steel structures. Fundamental concepts are stiffness methods, internal work, virtual work and approximate analysis techniques to verify computer results. The methods of analysis are applied to frame structures.
