Miami Beach officials ordered the evacuation of the 14-story Port Royale Condominium building on Oct. 27, after a structural engineer determined the 50-year-old building to be unsafe due to the ...

When used in structural engineering, the term deflection refers to load-induced displacement, which typically affects beam designs. It can be an extremely complicated value to calculate when ...

In civil engineering, flexural beams are used to control the effect of vibrations that can cause cracks to appear in surfaces (concrete slabs) and beams. This is particularly important in buildings ...

This course presents the fundamental principles of structural analysis, determination of reactions, internal forces and deflections under the static load conditions. The course is mainly focused to ...

New research shows steel I- and T-sections inside concrete beams can offset shear loss from web openings—enhancing safety in ...
