STEEL STRUCTURES, IV-TH YEAR

SUBJECTS FOR EXAMINATION 1. INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS: non-structural elements as parts of the envelope of industrial buildings and the their fixing to the structure 2. BRACING SYSTEMS FOR INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS : the functions of the bracing systems; braces of the roof 3. BRACING SYSTEMS FOR INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS : braces of the columns, steel sections used and design criteria 4. PURLINS : elements used for the roof purlins, support and continuity details 5. PURLINS : special types used for wide bays 6. PURLINS : actions and groups of actions on the roof 7. PURLINS : simply supported (relationships of sizing and verification) 8. PURLINS : continuous (relationships of sizing and verification) 9. TRANSVERSAL FRAME : steel trusses, hinged or fixed to the columns (design details) 10. TRANSVERSAL FRAME : static systems adopted and the effects of the supplementary structural frame connections in the members of the truss (case of doubly hinged truss) 11. TRANSVERSAL FRAME : static systems adopted and the effects of the supplementary structural frame connections in the internal members of the truss (case of doubly fixed truss) 12.
