Introduction to Steel Structures, Analysis and Design

How can engineers design steel structures that are both efficient and capable of withstanding complex loading conditions? Steel is widely used in construction due to its strength, flexibility, and adaptability, but effective design requires a clear understanding of structural behaviour, load paths, and stability considerations.

The Introduction to Steel Structures, Analysis and Design course by LPC Training equips participants with the foundational knowledge required to analyse and design steel structural systems. Over five focused days, participants explore structural behaviour, load analysis, member design, connection detailing, and stability principles used in steel construction.

This course focuses on practical engineering applications in building and infrastructure projects. Participants will examine fabrication considerations, construction methods, and design optimisation strategies that influence real-world structural performance. By the end of the programme, participants will be able to perform basic structural analysis, design steel members, and understand how design decisions affect construction and performance.
