Education facts
Code: 4BY377
This course is based on the knowledge acquired from previous courses as steel and wood structures and conceptual structural design. The main focus of the course is to be able to use and understand results from FE analyses to determine design sectional forces. More precisely, the course deals with: Statically indeterminate structures and the possibility of redistributing loads at the ultimate limit state. Evaluations of design forces based on FE analyses. System stability, global (buckling, lateral buckling) and local stability (web buckling, flange buckling, buckling of stiffeners). Design methods for high cycle fatigue and practical design of structural details with regard to fatigue.
Entry requirements
Analysis of structures 7,5 credits, Finite element method 7,5 credits, Energy efficient and sustainable construction, 7.5 credits, Conceptual structural design 10 credits, or the equivalent.
