What will I learn?
Gain essential skills in selecting trustworthy material properties, understanding stress-strain curves, and confidently using safety factors. Master basic beam principles, bending and shear stresses, deflection calculations, strain equations, and safety margin assessments. Complete the course equipped to clearly record design assumptions and suggest practical, cost-effective enhancements for everyday structures.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Select steel properties: pick modulus E, yield strength, and note sources efficiently.
- Analyse beams: sketch shear and moment diagrams, identify maximum bending stress.
- Calculate deflections: use cantilever equations, check units and service limits.
- Assess safety: contrast stresses with yield values, use safety factors, evaluate risks.
- Suggest fixes: adjust shape, material, or add stiffeners to reduce deflection.
