Core Expertise Areas

Structural Analysis

Determinate structures: reactions from equilibrium alone, beams, trusses. Indeterminate structures: additional compatibility equations required. Stiffness method: global stiffness matrix, solve for nodal displacements. Influence lines: show effect of moving load at different positions on member force. Second-order effects: P-delta amplification of moments due to axial loads.
