What you will learn

  • The basics of structural loading and limit state design
  • The advantages, and disadvantages, of using structural steelwork
  • An understanding of the failure modes in bending, axial, shear and lateral torsional buckling (LTB is introduced only)
  • Examples of how to calculate the design resistance against bending, shear, axial and combined failure (lateral torsional buckling calculations are beyond this course)

Course Description

The world of engineering can be both fascinating and daunting for newcomers!
That is why Ihave created this beginner course to introduce you to the basics of steel design in a more welcoming way. Please note the course is in metric units and will often reference the Eurocode.
If you are looking for a solid introduction to, or refresher on, steel design where we run through:
When to use steelHow it failsDifferent loading conditionsLateral RestraintStress/Strain and yield strengthsBending, Axial and Shear Resistance (including an example of each)Combined Axial and Bending Resistance (including example)Then this course may be for you! I focus on not only running through the theory, but also real world considerations that are not often found in the text books.
Ihave also included examples on bending, shear and axial failure as well as introducing you to lateral torsional buckling (we'll only run through what LTB is, the calculations are a bit too advanced for here).
This course has been specifically designed to give value to you, the student, and lifetime access means you will receive all future updates and additions free of charge.
If you are not100% sure this course is for you, feel free to take a look around.
If you are not convinced, there is a 30 day money back guarantee with no hard feelings or questions asked.
Thanks for taking the time to view this course, and I hope to see you in there!!
Who this course is for:
This course was designed to benefit anyone involved in the construction industry.
Structural engineers ranging from the novice to intermediate level.
Other professionals within the industry such as architects, contractors and project managers looking to increase their design knowledge.

Instructor Details

Adam Brittan

Hi,
I am a practisingengineer in a design consultancy,with overa decade's experience in structural designwho ispassionate about structural engineering.
After studying at four different universities in two different countries, Ihave completed modules up to amasters level in steel building and concrete building design. With the educational base and hands on experience within the industry I plan on creating courses available to everyone.
I was paying almost 2000 per subject at masters level and believe this information should beaffordablyavailable to whomever is willing to take the time to learn.

very good course for beginning to learn steel design according to Eurocode

very good

The Audio sound is too low..

By Jason Jonathan Parkasam on 9/16/2020

Was an excellent match for me, as I am a intermediate design engineer specializing in structural steel for commercial, residential and industrial sectors.

For me I wanted more general overview of steel structures but I found it too technical

By Batu Dal on 9/4/2020

Poor audio quality, poor technology usage, very limited scope

By Hungerford & Terry on 8/24/2020

It was a good review for the time frame of the course. I will probably re-watch some points, but the instructor does a great job presenting.

thankyou

By Vincent on 8/14/2020

yes i am actually learning so much that i never thought steel would factor, this course was amazing learnt alot about steel design, however i suggest you closely explain certain calculation and also where certain values like the final example were being taken from, because you may know where the values are coming from but it would be great to show us exactly where the values and why you are using certain equations thank you, overall i loved this course and highly recommend it.
