What will I learn?
This Strength of Materials Course provides a straightforward, hands-on guide to choosing steel or reinforced concrete for a small footbridge. You'll identify loads and their combinations, model a simple span, determine internal forces, select appropriate sections, verify stresses and deflections, and compile a clear, organised report using real-world data, code requirements, and trusted references.
