Structural Design Capstone

Catalog description

The objectives of the course are for students to develop an understanding of advanced structural engineering design issues in a capstone context that will merge knowledge gained in prerequisite structural design and analysis courses. By building on concepts introduced in introductory steel building, concrete building, and foundation design, students will gain additional proficiency in structural conceptualization, environmental and induced load determination, modeling and analysis, detailed design of steel and concrete structures, and graphical communication.
