What will I learn?
This short Material Science Course teaches you how to select and size materials for strong, portable frames and footbridges. You will learn important properties, trade-offs between strength and weight, and basic structural tests for beams, joints, and panels. You will also explore coatings, protection against corrosion, recyclability, and inspection methods so your designs remain safe, light, affordable, and suitable for outdoor use in real life.
