CIVE 291 - Structural Design 1

Credits: 3 Total Hours: 90

Restricted to students in Civil Engineering Technology
Civil engineering technologists are often required to analyse simple structures to determine the required timber sizes to resist the applied loads. In this course students will learn the limit states design method in accordance with the BC Building Code including calculating wind loads, snow loads and earthquake loads. Students will also learn to design timber beams, columns, diaphragms, shear walls and connections using the relevant Canadian design codes. Building Information Modeling (BIM) systems are also introduced.
