HOW TO BE A GOOD STRUCTURAL ENGINEER:


  

which topics are very useful for a structural engineer

if you want to become a good STRUCTURAL ENGINEER.  you have to enhance your knowledge about these topics

STRUCTURAL ENGINEER: 

Structural engineers are responsible for the  analysis and design of :

Architectural structures: Buildings, houses, factories. They must work in close cooperation
with an architect who will ultimately be responsible for the design.

Civil Infrastructures: Bridges, dams, pipelines, offshore structures. They work with trans-
portation, hydraulic, nuclear, and other engineers. For those structures they play the
leading role.

Aerospace, Mechanical, Naval structures: aeroplanes, spacecrafts, cars, ships, submarines
to ensure the structural safety of those important structures.


 you must need a bachelor degree in civil engineering



(1) ENGINEERING MATHEMATICS :


calculus,vector, eigenvalue, eigenvector ,matrices.


(2) ENGINEERING DRAWING : 

     plans, sections, elevations.

(3)  ENGINEERING MATERIALS:


brick, wood, cement, mortar, concrete, effects of the chemical are on cement and concrete.


(4)  STRUCTURAL MECHANICS AND ANALYSIS :



stress, strain, modulus of elasticity, shear force diagram, bending moment diagram,  influence line, flexibility matrix method,  stiffness matrix method, plastic analysis approaches,  beam theory, buckling, earthquake engineering, finite element method in structural analysis, torsion, trusses, degree of freedom, analysis of the indeterminate structure using moment distribution method and slope deflection method.


(5) SOIL MECHANICS:

the physical property of soil,  soil classification, permeability and seepage, compaction, vertical stress in soil, soil exploration, soil improvement.


you have to learn about software like...

AUTOCAD  2D and 3D .
STAAD PRO.
REVIT.
ETABS.
SAP2000.
MIDAS GEN.
