Fundamentals of Working Stress Method: Strength Analysis and LRFD Method of Design: Factor of Safety, Loads and Load Combination

CE425 is a 3 credit hour course on steel structures. The course introduces students to the use of steel as a structural material and develops their ability to design steel structures using both the allowable stress design and load and resistance factor design methods. Key topics covered include tension members, compression members, beams, beam-column connections, plate girders, bolted and welded connections, and truss design. The objective is for students to be able to analyze and design basic steel structural elements and connections.
