Course Learning Objectives
The objective of this course is:

  • Learn the fundamental concepts of matrix structural mechanics, such as the stiffness method.
  • The concepts of structural analysis learnt in mechanics of solids and structures course.
  • Understanding the analysis of statically determinate and indeterminate structures such as trusses, beams, frames and plane stress problems.
  • Learn the concepts of the stiffness method and apply it to a variety of structural problems involving trusses, beams, frames, and plane stress.

Course Outcomes
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to

  • Perform the structural analysis of determinate and indeterminate structures using classical compatibility methods, such as method of consistent deformations, force and equilibrium methods.
  • Perform structural analysis using the stiffness method.
  • Solve multiple degree of freedom two dimensional problems involving trusses, beams, frames and plane stress.
