Course details

Syllabus

  • Week 1 - Welcome
     
  • Week 1 - Deflections and Statically Indeterminate Beam Structures
    In this section, we will learn how calculate the deflections, or deformations, of engineering structures subjected to loads. We will then use those techniques is solving statically indeterminate beam problems
  • Week 2 - Column Buckling, Combined Loading, & Failure Theories
    In this section, we will learn how to analyze and design for column buckling. We will also learn how to analyze and design engineering structures subjected to combined loading. Finally, we will conclude with failure theories in mechanics of materials.

Prerequisite

None.
