Structures 1

ARCH-2330

Through in-class presentations, homework, exams, and worked problems, students will learn the basic principles of structural systems, when to apply them, and how they resist gravitational and lateral forces. In addition, students will learn the principles of statics and apply them to basic structural analyses of common structural elements. It is recognized that intuitions of building technologies are not acquired quickly but result from much study, observation, and practice. Structures 1 makes use of the approaches above to ensure that the beginning student is provided with a broad, solid base for future structural investigations.
