TASK 1 -
Discuss the statutory requirements to ensure safety in structural designs.
Explore, explain and produce valid factors of safety for live loads, dead loads and imposed loads using current codes of practice and building regulations, a valid example can be utilized to illustrate this further.
You can use the simply supported beam carrying a UDL provided in Task 1(c) or otherwise, to evaluate how maximum bending moments determine steel beam selection using current codes of practice and approved documents in terms of economics and safety. Select a trial section for this beam and explore its safety for bending.
TASK 2 -
Explain how deflection in beams affect structural stability.
Identify and describe different methods of supports for structures in general and how are these are applied to both steel and reinforced concrete structures. Analyze different support methods and their effect on deflection in fixed structures.
Assess the most effective support method for a given scenario, in terms of ease and speed of construction, economics, safety and environmental factors. You may apply these two examples to be stated in both steel and reinforced concrete structures.
TASK 3 -
Describe the concepts of slenderness ratio and effective length in the design of both steel and reinforced concrete columns separately, and comparing them appropriately.
Explore and analyze the load carrying capacity, size, weight and corrosion resistance properties of different materials used for beams and columns in fixed structures.
TASK 4 -
Evaluate the use of an alternative material, different from concrete or steel, in achieving a design solution, discussing the benefits and challenges so associated.
Assess the use of Building Information Modelling in the production of accurate structural design information and the collaborative environment of structural design.
