CE 3501 - Structural Analysis I (3)

Classification of structures, types of framing systems and loading, the statics and stability of determinate structures, and the methods of calculating deformations of determinate beams, frames, and trusses. An introduction to statically indeterminate structures is included based on the Method of Consistent Deformations. As such, it establishes a foundation for further study in Structural Analysis II and structural design in reinforced concrete, masonry, steel, timber, etc.
