Overview

This course suits anyone who wish to understand how to analyse structures using statics. Tutor support provided throughout the course, students will be awarded certificates upon successful completion of the course and its assessments.

Description

Structural analysis and mechanics is the study of structural behaviour. Mechanics is used by engineers to ensure structural members can support design loads. In this course, students will learn the basics of mechanics and statics to analyse beam and frame members.

Objectives of the course:

  • Understand the properties and behaviour of engineering materials
  • Understand the load transfer in structural elements design
  • Introduction to different types of beam cross sections
  • Section properties
  • Static equilibrium
  • Analysis of Cantilevers
  • Analysis of Simply supported beams
  • Analysis of frames

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
