Description
One of the most important keys when you calculate the strength resistance of a particular structure is its capacity for supporting loads. In mechanics of materials, the strength of a material is its ability to withstand and apply load without failure or plastic deformation. The field of material strength deals with forces and deformations that result from their acting on a material. In this module the different failure modes will be explained. The importance between elastic and plastic deformation will be explained. After that, the bending and deflection of steel beams will be shown through equations. The stress distribution will be analysed. Finally, the elastic and plastic moduli will be analysed for different beam orientations.
What you will learn
- Describe the failure mode of steel structure;
- Use the equations of steel calculations.
