Course abstract

The structural engineering is an essential component of Architecture. The creativity and imagination of an architect come to reality by adopting a suitable structural system. Architects should understand the basic principles and concepts of structure in order to apply the structural system suitably. It is also needed for an Architect to communicate effectively with consultants and contractors about the conceived structural system. The course is designed to explain structural concepts clearly, using analogies and examples.
