Course Objectives The aim of the course is to learn the basic principles of structural analysis and the methods to be used in the analysis of statically-determinate beam, truss and frame systems, to draw system internal force diagrams, to learn the methods used in the displacement calculations of statically-determinate systems, and to classify, model and analyze structural systems.
Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Classify the structural systems.
  • Define the loads which act on the structural systems.
  • Calculate the support reactions and internal forces of statically-determinate systems.
  • Draw the internal force diagrams of statically-determinate systems.
  • Calculate the elastic displacements of the statically-determinate beams, frames and trusses.
  • Perform structural modeling and analysis of different structural systems.
Course Description In this course, structural systems will be classified, assumptions in calculations will be examined and concepts of load, support reaction, equilibrium, internal force and displacement will be learned. Internal force diagrams of different structural systems will be drawn and the methods used in displacement calculations will be examined.
