Category: Structural analysis and design

The structural analysis deals with the analysis and design of load carrying elements of any construction. It is a core branch of civil engineering. Structural analysis is difficult without the help of software but it also takes expertise to work with software as it needs a very high level of ability to quantify.

The role of a structure designer is to design the skeleton of the building and determine and calculate reinforcement.
