Course Objective

In this course, the linear- elastic structural systems of end displacements, forces, moments of members will be obtained by using matrix methods. These structures are referred to as continuous beams, planar frames, space frames, grids, planar trusses and space trusses. The two fundamental approaches to the analysis of these structural systems: the flexibility method and stiffness method. These methods developed and formulated for computer usage. Elementary matrix algebra is used for flexibility and stiffness methods in this course.
