What will I learn?
This Dynamics and Funicular Systems Course provides practical tools to analyze cable-supported and shallow arch structures, covering funicular theory, sag optimization, dynamic behavior, and vibration control. You will learn to define loads, select material properties, perform hand calculations, compare cable and arch solutions, and create concise design notes for actual projects.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Funicular cable analysis: compute sag, tension and reactions with fast hand methods.
- Two-hinged arch design: estimate thrust, bending and rise/span for shallow arches.
- Dynamic serviceability checks: assess pedestrian vibration and select damping solutions.
- Cable vs arch comparison: quantify reactions, foundations, cost and lifecycle impacts.
- Practical calc reporting: use clear templates, assumptions and concise design notes.

Your classes are perfect. I got the one-year package and finally have the chance to follow several topics I'm interested in without having to switch platforms... thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to others...
