Building Structure E-Portfolio

Project 1: Fettuccine Truss Bridge

 Objectives:
-          To develop student’s understanding of tension and compressive strength of construction materials
-          To develop student’s understanding of force distribution in a truss
-          To design a perfect truss bridge which fulfills the following criteria:
o   High level of aesthetic value
o   Minimal construction material
Learning Outcomes:
-          Able to evaluate, explore and improve attributes of construction materials
-          Explore and apply understanding of load distribution in a truss
-          Able to evaluate and identify tension and compression members in a truss structure
-          Explore different arrangement of members in a truss structure

Project 2: Extension of a R.C. structure
Objectives: 
  • To introduce the basic process of building structures design process to the students.
  • To enable the students to have a holistic experience including Concept and Structure Layout Design, Building Structure Engineering Considerations, Structure Members Sizing and Calculations, Final Report and Presentation.
Learning Outcomes:
  • Produce a complete documentation on structural system of a case study
  • Explore and understand the concept of structural analysis
  • Identification of structural components
  • Recognize, Execute and implement basic procedures of building structure design
  • Produce a structural proposal
