Browse Programs Admission InformationThe Civil Engineering Structures programme of study is an academic programme that focuses on the design, analysis and construction of engineering structures that form an essential part of the infrastructure of modern societies. This specialisation includes the study of buildings, bridges, tunnels, dams, and other structures that require a deep understanding of civil engineering rules and physical principles.
The study of civil engineering structures is an important engineering discipline that focuses on the design and analysis of structural structures to ensure their safety and efficiency. The following are some of the key metrics that are focused on in the study programmes of this discipline:
1. Mechanics of materials: The study of the behaviour of materials under the influence of various forces.
2. Structural Analysis: Learn how to analyse static and moving structures.
3. Reinforced Concrete Design: Study the design of reinforced concrete elements such as beams, columns and foundations.
4. Design of Metal Structures: Learn the design of metal structures and connections.
5. Structural Dynamics: Analyse structures under dynamic loads such as earthquakes and wind.
1.Computer Aided Design (CAD): Using engineering design software such as AutoCAD and Revit.
2. Structural analysis software: Using software such as SAP2000, ETABS and Robot to analyse structures.
3. Project Management: Learn how to manage construction projects.
4. Laboratory experiments: Conduct experiments on materials and structures to understand their practical behaviour.
5. Field visits: Visiting construction sites to understand the practical applications of the theoretical designs.
