On completion of the course, students are able to:
1. Determine the tensile force or compressive force on each element of
a statically determinate space truss.
2. Apply the slope-deflection or moment distribution method to analyse
statically indeterminate beams and frames
3. Determine the torsion, shear centre and shear flow of beams and thin
-walled members.
4. Perform the analysis of stress and strain transformation by using the
Critical Thinking and Problem Solving
Analysis of statically determinate space trusses, introduction to statically
indeterminate space trusses, slope deflection method for analysis of
continuous beams and plane frames, moment distribution method for
analysis of continuous beams and plane frames, shear flow, shear centre
and torsion theory, complex stresses and strains, two dimensional stress
system, principal stresses, principal strain, Mohr’s circle and stress-strain
