Construction Structural Analysis & Design

BCM319

Fundamental principles of structural mechanics as they are applied to the design and selection of structural components in residential, commercial, and civil construction. Topics will include how loads and stresses are determined, the proper use of tables to size and select structural members, and how the construction manager can assist the engineer in the solution of structural problems. Writing exercises enrich the understanding of the core concepts as well as provide practice composing construction documents. (Writing Enriched )
