Design of Structural Steel Members

Practical Design of Structural Steel Members
Civil Engineering

The objective of this course is to provide comprehensive knowledge about structural steel and its design as an element in a building. 

About the Course

This course covers the fundamentals of structural steel design from an industry standpoint. Each course topic covers details of various components of a project, which will roll up to the complete design of a fully integrated steel structure. This course exposes learners on the design of steel building elements for a typical building. This will also help in bridging the gap between the design of specific building components and the complete design of a steel structure. The examples and details provided in the course not only gives the learners an essential background on structural steel design, but also provides subject material that closely mirrors details and examples that occur in practice. 

Learning Outcomes

Learners will be able to perceive the fundamentals in designing the various steel elements and its connections by understanding its behavior thereby gaining confidence in designing a complete structure.
