1 ENG 002 INTRODUCTION to ENGINEERING Structural Engineering Building Engineering

2 Introduction to Structural Engineering Forces in Structures Structural Systems Some Definitions of Important Structural Properties

3 Structural Engineering What does a Structural Engineer do? A Structural Engineer designs the structural systems and structural elements in buildings, bridges, stadiums, tunnels, and other civil engineering works (bones) Design: process of determining location, material, and size of structural elements to resist forces acting in a structure

4 Engineering Design Process Identify the problem (challenge) Explore alternative solutions Research past experience Brainstorming Preliminary design of most promising solutions Analyzing and designing viable solutions Testing and evaluation of solution Experimental testing or field tests Peer evaluation Build solution using available resources (materials, equipment, labor)

5 Design Process in Structural Engineering Select material for construction Determine appropriate structural system for a particular case Determine forces acting on a structure Calculate size of members and connections to avoid failure (collapse) or excessive deformation

6 Examples of Typical Structures

7 Forces Acting in Structures Forces induced by gravity Dead Loads (permanent): self-weight of structure and attachments Live Loads (transient): moving loads (e.g. occupants, vehicles) Forces induced by wind Forces induced by earthquakes Forces induced by rain/snow Fluid pressures Others

8 Forces Acting in Structures Vertical: Gravity Lateral: Wind, Earthquake

9 Global Stability Sliding Overturning

10 Forces in Structural Elements 100 kn 100 KN Tension Compression

11 Forces in Structural Elements 100 kn Bending Torsion

12 Typical Structural Systems Arch

13 Typical Structural Systems C Truss C T C T Forces in Truss Members

14 Typical Structural Systems Frame

15 Typical Structural Systems

16 Typical Structural Systems Folded Plate

17 Typical Structural Systems Shells

18 Materials Used in Civil Engineering Stone and Masonry Metals Cast Iron Steel Aluminum Concrete Wood Fiber-Reinforced Plastics

19 Engineering Properties of Materials Steel Concrete Wood Masonary Composite

20 Concrete Components Sand (Fine Aggregate) Gravel (Coarse Aggregate) Cement (Binder) Water Air

21 Fiber-Reinforced Composites Composite Laminate Polymer Matrix Polyester Epoxy Vinylester Function of fibers: Provide stiffness Tensile strength Fiber Materials Glass Aramid (Kevlar) Carbon Functions of matrix: Force transfer to fibers Compressive strength Chemical protection

22 Engineering Properties of Strength Structural Elements Ability to withstand a given stress without failure Depends on type of material and type of force (tension or compression) Tensile Failure Compressive Failure

23 Engineering Properties of Structural Elements Stiffness (Rigidity) Property related to deformation Stiffer structural elements deform less under the same applied load Stiffness depends on type of material (E), structural shape, and structural configuration Two main types Axial stiffness Bending stiffness

24 Axial Stiffness T L Lo T

25 Bending Stiffness Force Displacement

26 Stiffness of Different Structural Shapes Stiff Stiffer Stiffest

27 Types of Structural Elements Bars and Cables Bars can carry either tension or compression Cables can only carry tension

28 Types of Structural Elements Beams Loads Compression Tension

29 Providing Stability for Lateral Loads Racking Failure of Pinned Frame Braced Frame Infilled Frame Rigid Joints
