CIV 530 - Structural Mechanics This course deals with fundamentals of the theory of structures with the objective of providing proper understanding and knowledge on structural analysis methods and structural behavior. The subject treatment is in the context of truss, beam, frame, and plate structural elements. A key objective is to provide the necessary knowledge and skills for capturing structural behavior through simple models. The course will extend concepts in matrix structural analysis by presenting a general framework for analyzing complex structural systems. A brief introduction to the finite element method and nonlinear structural analysis is provided.
