What Will I Learn?
This Dynamics and Funicular Systems Course equips you with practical tools to analyse cable-supported and shallow arch structures. Cover funicular theory, sag optimisation, dynamic behaviour, and vibration control. Learn to define loads, select material properties, perform straightforward hand calculations, compare cable and arch solutions, and create concise, justified design notes for actual projects.
Elevify Advantages
Develop Skills
- Funicular cable analysis: compute sag, tension and reactions using quick 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...
