Building Structures [ARC 2523]

Project 1: Fettuccine Truss Bridge

Truss is a structure built up of three or more members which are normally considered being pinned and hinged at the joints. Load applied to the truss is transmitted to joint so that each individual members are in either pure tension or compression.


Learning Outcomes:


  • Able to evaluate, explore and improve attributes of construction materials 
  • Explore and apply understanding of load distribution in a truss
  • Able to evaluate and identify tension and compression members in a truss structure
  • Explore different arrangement of members in a truss structure



Project 2: Extension Work of a R.C Structure 

Learning Outcomes:

  • Produce a complete documentation on structural system of a case study
  • Explore and understand the concept of structural analysis
  • Identification of structural components
  • Recognize, Execute and implement basic procedures of building structure design
  • Produce a structural proposal
