This course is designed to introduce Steel structural members design according to the limit states design as per IS800 standards. The basic principles of steel structural design are explained using typical example problems with figures, tables. The examples are illustrated with behavior and design of bolted connection, tension members, compression members, laterally restrained and unrestrained beams, beam columns – members subjected to combined axial and bending forces. Students are expected to obtain the knowledge on principles and design of steel structural elements by end of this course. A preliminary knowledge on structural analysis is required before going to this course.
The Major topics covered in this course is Bolt Shear, Bolt Tension, Rupture, Block Shear in Connection design, Net area, Tension Yield, Tension Rupture, Tension Block Shear in Tension design, Section classification, buckling curve, slenderness ratio in Compression design, Laterally restrained and Laterally unrestrained members in Beam design, finally combined forces like axial force with bending moment covered in Beam column design.
