CIE 524LEC - Steel Structures

This course covers the basis of current design specifications for metal structures, including material behavior, failure under stress, strength theories, brittle fracture, fatigue, and residual stress. Topics covered in the class include fundamentals of member performance, bending and extension of beams, uniform and non-uniform torsion, column buckling including the effects of crookedness and rotation, inelasticity, residual stress, plate buckling, and design of girders.
