Description

• English Description
  
  Introduction: types of structures, types of supports, types of loads, determinacy, equilibrium and stability of structures. Analysis of statically determinate structures: calculation of reactions, calculation of internal forces (normal force, shearing force and bending moments) for plane structures: beams, trussed beams, inclined beams, frames, closed frames, arches and trusses. Analysis of beams, frames and trusses under moving loads using the influence lines diagrams.
