Structures 302 (A)
Description
This module deals with elementary theory and techniques used in the analysis of statically determinate, statically indeterminate structural systems and
stress transformation for general sections.
This module also details the principles and methods used in the design of structural steelwork to EN1993, with reference to sustainability in design.
Learning Outcomes
Derive and formulate equations for the analysis of principal stresses and maximum shear stress.
Determine slopes and deflections in statically determinate beams.
Analyse the states of stress caused by combined loadings.
Select an appropriate scheme design for a structural steelwork building, consider sustainability challenges, defend design decisions and present findings both orally and in written form.
Design and detail structural elements in structural steelwork to EN1993, and communicate the design in an appropriate manner.
