What will I learn?
This course equips you with hands-on skills to model beams, determine reactions, and create precise shear and bending moment diagrams for basic bridge structures. Master sign conventions, piecewise and singularity functions, load superposition, and parametric verification, along with code-compliant load investigation, documentation, and safety-oriented analysis for practical engineering projects.
