Course details

More about this course
  • This course deals with shear and bending. Shear is a set of parallel, non-collinear forces acting across an element and bending is the curved form taken by a slender element when subjected to loads perpendicular to the element
  • You will study how stress and bending force acts for different structures and also, identify what role these forces play in their designs
  • The first module introduces you to the concept of shear and bending while building structures
  • The second module explores different understanding of stress and bending
  • You will also learn how to calculate shear stresses and bending stresses
  • You'll also study the structure beam and share a report on it
