Design of Structural Steel Members According to CSA S16
After participating in this course, you will be able to:
- Learn how to design different types of structural steel members, including trusses, beams, and columns.
- Learn about the behaviour and failure modes of steel members, including material failure, local buckling, global instability, etc.
- Acquire knowledge of the design and detailing of bolted and welded connections.
Description
To design steel structures, engineers need to know how to apply the requirements of the Canadian Steel Design Handbook (CSA S16:19) and also have a good understanding of the behaviour and failure modes of steel structural members. This course covers the design procedure for commonly used steel structural members, including tension members, axially loaded members, flexural members, and beam-column members.
This course also provides the necessary knowledge to design and detail different types of connections. Through several examples, participants will learn how to apply the design provisions of CSA S16 and understand the philosophy behind the design requirements. To gain more advanced knowledge on connection design, it is recommended to take the “Structural Steel Connections - Design, Detail and Specifications” course.
Who Should Attend
