Structural Engineering and Role of Project Manager in Civil Engineering

Image
The Basics of Structural Engineering Structural engineering is the study of how to design structures and non-structural elements that bear a load. Structural engineering seeks to determine the stability and longevity of a load-bearing item, and design building plans accordingly. Structural engineering study is also the study of physics of nature such as the effects of wind, water and snow on buildings, the effects of gravity and the effects of the weight of the structure itself.  Structural engineering basics cover how common building materials such as steel, concrete and wood behave under pressure. These known behaviors are used in conjunction with special equations that predict how much weight a structural design can withstand while remaining structurally sound. Structural engineers also plan for safety in the event of an earthquake, flood or other disruptive force. They design the structure to fail under these circumstances without endangering the occupants within or on the stru...
