M17 Steel and Timber Structures - Steel Structures I
Info

The course provides the basic knowledge for the structural design of steel structures and the dimensioning of members and frameworks in steel structures. This includes getting to know application areas and typical components and constructions in steel buildings and industrial structures and deepening the material-mechanical fundamentals of steel structures: In addition, the knowledge of the beam theory is expanded and cross-sectional properties, elastic and plastic stress verifications as well as welded and bolted connections are examined in more detail. Finally, the fundamentals of stability theory are presented.

M17 Steel and Timber Structures - Steel Structures II
Info

In this course, you will deepen and broaden your knowledge and competencies for the structural design of member-shaped components and the execution of steel and steel-concrete composite structures. Key topics include stability theory with flexural and lateral torsional buckling, plate buckling, and the application of bracing & stabilization. Principles of calculations of composite structures (composite beams and columns) are also explained and connections to reinforced concrete structures are considered.

For more information, please refer to the Module Description.

Sessions

Mondays from 12:00 to 1:30 p.m. (HIC) and Wednesdays from 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. (HIB) (WiSe). This course starts on 12.10.2023.

M17 Steel and Timber Structures - Engineering Timber Structures
Info

Within this course, the knowledge for the design, dimensioning and execution of engineering timber structures is developed. This includes getting to know the application areas of timber structures and the timber material itself. Structural safety and serviceability verifications of timber components are presented and extended by means of exercises with designs of steel-timber and timber-timber connections. Stability verifications for buckling and tilting as well as durability and design rules for timber structures are developed and illustrated with typical examples such as halls and roof structures.

For more information, please refer to the Module Description.

Sessions

Thursdays from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. (WiSe). This course starts on 12.10.2023.
