CEE 5464 Structural Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering
This class covers the fundamentals of structural dynamics starting with single degree of freedom systems subjected to free vibration, harmonic loading, impulse loading, step loading, and arbitrary loading. Then, students examine structural response to earthquake loading through dynamic response history … Continue reading
CEE 3434 Design of Steel Structures 1
The primary objective of this course is to understand and apply the principles of structural steel design. The course will explore the behavior and design of structural steel members and steel-frame buildings including tension members, compression members, flexural members, connections, … Continue reading
