STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS-II

Course Description

The main purpose of this course is to introduce the concepts of statistically indeterminate forces, displacement calculation including environmental effects, support movements and temperature effects. This course also introduces engineering students to the basic techniques required for analysing the majority of the structures and elements, including beams, frames, arches, trusses and cables. Slope deflection and moment distribution theories and influence lines for statically indeterminate structures will also be discussed. At the end of this course, students will be familiar with the following terms: statically indeterminate structures, flexibility and stiffness matrices, virtual work, strain energy, moment areas, column analogy and moment distribution methods, force and displacement method of approach using slope deflection method, force method of approach, matrix method of structural analysis, influence lines.
