Introduction to CAN/CSA – S16, design and behaviour concepts; shear lag, block shear, local plate buckling, lateral torsional buckling, instantaneous centre, inelastic strength and stability. Design of tension members, axially loaded columns, beams, beam-columns, simple bolted and welded connections. Prerequisite(s): CIVE 2200. Recommended prerequisite: CIVE 3204.Lectures three hours a week, problem analysis three hours alternate weeks.
