Indeterminate Structures & The Moment Distribution Method

Unlock indeterminate structures using the moment distribution structural analysis method.

After completing this course...

You will have a deep understanding of how structures respond to loading.
You will clearly understand the methods used to analyse statically indeterminate beams and frames.
You will be able to analyse both non-sway and sway frames – essential when designing real world structures.
