Course Contents

2D structures. Internal forces, fundamental and composite structural systems. Simply supported
Beams and Frames. Three-hinged arches. Trusses and suspended systems. Influence lines. Extreme
values – Envelopes. Energy principles. Calculation of displacements. 3D structures.

Educational Goals

Understand equilibrium and the behavior of determinate structures. Analyze statically determinate
structures, such as Beams, Frames, Trusses, Mixed Structures, Continuous Frames and strengthened
Structures subject to various permanent loadings. Draw bending, shear and axial force diagrams of
determinate structures. Understand and apply the principle of virtual work.
