  • CE 453: Matrix Structural Analysis

    2.00 Credits
    Saint Martin's University

    Development and application of matrix methods as the basis for modern, computer-based structural analysis. Topics covered include matrix algebra, basic concepts of the force and flexibility methods, member and structure stiffness matrices, the gaussian elimination algorithm, and exercises in solving indeterminate trusses, beams and frames. Senior civil engineering students learn to extend classical structural analysis to the advanced analytical techniques used in professional practice. Students are introduced to commercial software currently used by structural engineers. Prerequisite: CE 350.

  • CE 460: Structural Systems Design

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Martin's University

    Current professional practice in the design of structural systems for buildings. Multiple material types are used in creating structural systems designed to resist dead, live, wind and earthquake loads in accordance with Uniform Building Code criteria. Economical arrangements of components to achieve material compatibility, strength, serviceability and constructability are emphasized. The impacts of different professional disciplines' responsibilities comprising a typical project team are examined. Prerequisites: CE 350 and CE 360.

  • CE 463: Dynamics of Structure

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Martin's University

    Introduction of free and forced vibration structures; equations of motion for single and multi degree of freedom structural system, response to harmonic, arbitrary or step excitations, analytical and numerical methods of natural frequency of vibration , linear and nonlinear system, un-damped, damped and resonant behavior of structures. These general concepts on the dynamic behavior of buildings and bridges are related to the structural response under earthquake induced motion. Structural design and analysis against earthquake loading will be introduced. Prerequisites: CE 350, CE 453.

  • CE 475: Bridge Engineering Design

    3.00 Credits
    Saint Martin's University

    Analysis and design of bridge structure based on Load Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) in accordance with the 2002 AASHTO and WADOT Bridge Design Specifications. Topics on new load resistant factors and parameters, new live load system and application, flexural analysis and design, modified compression field theory in shear and torsion design, and strut and tie analysis and design for disturbed region, fatigue and fracture problems in steel bridge and substructure design. Focus will be on the reinforced concrete deck and prestressed girder composite bridge structures. Design of steel girder bridge also will be introduced. During the course, students will design and prepare structural drawings of a bridge. Prerequisites: CE 350, CE450.
