Course Catalogue.

After participating in this course you will be able to:

• Apply structural analysis methods to beams, trusses, slabs, columns, walls, frames, footings, and pile foundations
• Assess the design of reinforced concrete and structural steel members
• Solve common structural engineering problems
• Employ wood and masonry design procedures

Description
Non-structural engineers and architects need a basic understanding of structural engineering. This course provides the fundamentals without delving into complicated mathematical formulas. The course covers the design and construction of concrete, steel, wood, and masonry building structures. Lectures will be followed by simple hands-on exercises and problem-solving sessions.
