CEE 506 Advanced Structural Systems
Analysis and design of structural systems. Specific topics include: Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), steel constitutive behavior, elastic and plastic analysis of cross-sections under flexural, axial, shear, and combined loading, column buckling, methods of plastic analysis, and systematic plastic analysis of structures. Students also collaborate in teams to perform a literature review, complete a final report, and give a presentation on a particular structural system or structural engineering-related issue of their choice.
