This course further develops your structural engineering knowledge and skills. It builds on prior knowledge in CIVE1179 Steel Structures 1 and prepares you to work in the real world of engineering. You will learn how to design a multi-story building under the constraints of architectural requirements. This course also covers a range of more advanced topics in the structural use of steel such as: steel/reinforced concrete composites slabs, composite beams, composite columns, shear buckling of web-stiffened plate girders, long span trusses, and plastic analysis of indeterminate beams.

This course includes a work integrated learning experience in which your knowledge and skills will be applied and assessed in a real or simulated workplace context and where feedback from industry and/or community is integral to your experience.
