Billions of tons of structural materials, such as steel, aluminum, and titanium are used every year. Learn where, why, and when they are used. From skyscrapers to transportation infrastructure, structural materials dominate the human landscape. Learning the principles that govern their selection is essential for any aspiring or practicing [...]

The course involves the study of the main types of metallic materials used in the manufacture of aerospace parts, their properties and technological aspects of production. The course examines the dependence of strength and other properties of titanium, aluminum alloys and high-strength steels on their composition, production and machining [...]

Explore the science, history, industrial and cultural significance of steel. This course is an introduction to steel, exploring its history and cultural context, where it comes from, how it works, why we use so much of it, and how we might use it in the future.

Understand steel connection behavior and explore connections with eccentricities, concentrated forces, and moments. Connection design is a critical component of structural design. Understanding how to design steel connections for any combination of axial, shear, and moment loads is fundamental to effective building design. This course will cover the design [...]

Learn fundamental concepts and applications of welded built-up steel plate girders including proportioning, flexural and shear strength, and local and global stability. Built-up plate girders are used extensively in bridges and as transfer girders in buildings. This course will cover the design of built-up plate girders with an emphasis [...]
