| Course Description: | Analysis of statically indeterminate systems using cross analyzing method, load analysis, dispersion and superposition of the loads on the free body. Static analysis of the systems under imposed loads. |
| Course Objectives: | Fundamental concepts: forces, actions and reactions; free-body diagrams, equilibrium, and internal loading (Shear, axial and bending moments) flexibility, compatibility, boundary conditions, different type of load on the structures. Statically determinate structures: statically determinacy and stability; reaction forces for planar and non-planar structures; Cables and arches. Determination of shear force & bending moment for beam & frame type structure. Truss analysis. 1) To introduce the subject of structural analysis 2) To introduce fundamental principles and techniques of structural analysis 3) To impart skills of analysis of determinates and simple indeterminate structures by various force methods |
