Teaching Method

Outline:

Structural analysis is the basis for building structure and structural design. The applied course follows Structural Analysis I (2nd year) and Structural Analysis III (3rd year). The students will learn the mechanical differences between statically determinate and statically indeterminate structures. The students will acquire solving methods for statically indeterminate structures, such as the stress method, and displacement method. Also, the students will gain knowledge of the representative solving methods, for statically indeterminate structures (rigid frame structure), such as the slope deflection method and moment distribution method. As part of the school global education, the tests and exercises are in English.

Style:

Lecture and problem-solving practice using textbook chapters 12 to15.

Notice:

To listen to the lectures and take notes. To solve exercise problems and understand them correctly. The students are supposed to ask questions and make sure they know the content before proceeding in the course. The students should review the topics learned in structural analysis courses I (2nd year) and II (3rd year). 5 absences will be excused.
