Determining the loads that act on structures and load combinations. Basic concepts in structural analysis of determinate beams, trusses, and frames. Deflections of determinate beams by moment area and conjugate beam methods. Development of basic virtual work concept to obtain deformations in determinate trusses, beams, and frames. Introduction to the solution of indeterminate structures by using the method of superposition. Influence lines for determinate beams.
