LO1: develop an understanding and working knowledge of Eurocodes with respect to steelwork.
LO2: analyze and design lattice girders to Eurocodes using secondary bracing and bending systems.
LO3: evaluate structural elements with respect to fatigue loading, as well as various buckling modes, e.g. local, flexural, distortional, lateral torsional, torsional and frames with respect to second-order effects,.
LO4: critically assess structural stability of thin plates subject to various in-plane loading conditions.
LO5: analyze and design plate girder and lattice girder elements to Eurocodes
