This course is continuation of Concrete Design 1 and introduces the preliminary to detailed design of civil engineering structures, such as building frames and/or highway bridges under static loading conditions. Students integrate knowledge from Engineering Drawing 2, Reinforced Concrete Design 1, Steel Design, and Foundation Design for the development of a project to design key structural components in accordance with the ACI Building Code Requirements and the AISC Steel Construction Manual. Industry structural design software is used for structural modeling, analysis, and design verification. The course culminates in the preparation of professional engineering drawings and structural design documentations.
