Syllabus
Course Objectives
This course covers design of structural steel elements, including tension members, compression members, flexural members, and structural connections with welds and bolts. You will be able to design these components using the AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings and to apply your knowledge to the design of a steel building.
Required Books
William T. Segui Steel Design 4th edition
BOOKSTORE
There will be no make-up exams unless arrangements have been made with the instructor at least one week in advance.
Labs
Bring:
your AISC manual, a straight edge, engineering paper, calculator, and writing instruments
Ethics
Academic integrity is expected of all students at all times. Any incidents of academic dishonesty will, at the very least, result in zero credit for the associated assignment or exam. Further penalties, such as immediate failure of the course and/or referral to the Dean of Students, are at the discretion of the instructor.
