Synopsis

This final year design Course represents the end point of many other courses including particularly, Engineering Statics, Stress Analysis, Structural Design 1, Concrete Structures and Structural Analysis. The course applies the knowledge and skills developed in those earlier courses to the design of some standard structural systems and buildings. The course also introduces structural analysis using computer software and the design of non-flexural reinforced concrete members using the strut-and-tie-model approach, reinforced concrete footings, steel members under combined actions, steel connections, and steel-concrete composite structures. The course material is presented in parallel to two major design projects.
