STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS I
I. GENERAL INFORMATION
COURSE CODE : IC 4510
CYCLE TO WHICH IT BELONGS : SEVENTH
REQUIREMENTS : Materials Resistance II
CREDITS : FIVE
CONDITION : Mandatory
SEMESTER : 2009-II
TEACHER : Ing. CARMEN CHILON MUÑOZ
2. COURSE OBJECTIVE
The basic concepts of structural analysis are presented. It explains how
obtain the acting loads in a structure and how to carry out their modeling and
analysis of the typical structures of buildings, obtaining the response in
displacements and internal forces. A review of the methods is made
classics for the resolution of isostatic and hyperstatic structures, such as
armor, beams, portals, and grids. An introduction is given to the use of programs
of computing for the analysis of structures.
The aim is for the student to be able to understand real structural problems and
I can model it and define the most suitable method for its interpretation and
solution.

METHODOLOGY
The course will consist of three theoretical sessions a week and one session of
biweekly practical assessment. In the theoretical sessions, it is presented the
basic knowledge and practical application problems are discussed. If
encourages the active practice of students.
Audiovisual material will be used in the presentation of the topics.
It is considered that attendance, punctuality, and participation in classes and their
discussions are very important.
The practical evaluations aim for the student to consolidate
they must present before the class.
V. EVALUATION
5.1 Of every five graded practices, the one with the lowest grade will be canceled.
5.2 Zero for copy is not canceled
5.3 Respect the Academic Regulations
5.4 The weights are:
QUALIFIED PRACTICES 25%
ASSIGNED JOBS (THE) 20%
MIDTERM EXAM (ME) 25%
