Syllabus

Unit 1

Statically indeterminate structures – degree of static and kinematic indeterminacies. Introduction to force and displacement methods of analysis.

Energy principles – Castigliano’s theorems – Engessor’s theorem – Maxwell Betti’s theorem – Principle of least work – Method of virtual work (unit load method) – applications in statically determinate and indeterminate structures (analysis of Propped cantilever and fixed beams).

Unit 2

Cables-maximum tension-types of supports-forces in towers-suspension bridges with three and two hinged girders.

Theory of Arches-Eddy’s theorem-analysis of three hinged and two hinged arches-settlement and temperature effects.

Unit 3

Moving loads and influence lines – influence lines (IL) for statically determinate and indeterminate beams for reaction, SF and BM-effect of moving loads-concentrated and uniformly distributed loads-load position for maximum BM and SD-equivalent UDL.

IL for determinate structures-truss, arch and suspension bridge.

Structural analysis of selected structural elements like beams, trusses and frames using MATLAB and validation using

available software.
