Steel has been used in construction of tall buildings since the 19th Century but nowadays steel has become an option for smaller buildings and even personal residences. Steel is a “Recycle” product, thus we can use recycle steel in the construction of buildings and other civil structures.Steel has many advantages over concrete, faster method of construction meaning better for business. Because of its increased durability and low maintenance, it is an attractive building materialThus understanding steel and learning how to design steel structures will help to prepare for the future industry.
This Design of Steel Structures course will teach you about design procedures for steel structure members and connections. This course will broaden your knowledge of how to design suitable bolt and welded connections for steel structures. You will learn a step-by-step process of designing tension and compression members, including lacing systems and batten plates. You will also learn how to design beams, bases and more.
The course will provide All the basic knowledge on steel structures, its advantages and will teach on how to design steel components like beams, columns and slabs and the modern techniques in analysing steel structures with proper training with Structural Software, you will be able to design your own steel structures with foundation design with the knowledge of computer software.
