Institute of Metal and Timber Structures (KDK)

Students will acquire more in-depth knowledge and skills in the area of the determination of the load on a steel tower and the static and dynamic calculation of a tower. They will be acquainted with issues concerning the design of a steel tower with fatigue resistance. They will be able to determine the rotation stiffness and moment bearing capacity of a joint and carry out the numerical analysis of a joint in a steel structure. Students will acquire more in-depth knowledge and skills in the area of the design of thin-walled cold-formed structures.

Metal structures - design of elements and connections of steel structures. Structural Mechanics, Elasticity and Plasticity.

Extension of knowledge of structural mechanics and numerical mathematics; acquisition of knowledge of issues concerning the modelling of engineering structures.

The course is taught through lectures, practical classes and self-study assignments. Attendance at lectures is optional, but attendance at classes is compulsory.

For the successful graduation of this course it is necessary to elaborate the particular tasks within the exercises. The attendance at the exercises is compulsory. The exam is realized by the written form.

1. Steel towers – categorization, load.
2. Steel towers - static and dynamic analysis.
3. Fatigue strength.
4. Connections in steel construction system, Classification of semi rigid connection.
5. Rotation stiffness, moment carrying capacity, numerical analysis.
6. Thin-walled cold-formed structural members – basis of design, material properties, cross-section chracteristics.
