Fundamentals of Structural Analysis

Get to grips with civil engineering structural analysis once and for all.

After completing this course...

You will understand key concepts such as the moment of a force, static equilibrium and determinacy.
You will be able to determine the support reactions for structures subject to a range of loading conditions.
You will learn to use the Joint Resolution Method and Method of Sections to analyse pin-jointed truss structures.
