• Package: Structures in Construction: Design and Analysis (25 resources)
  • This package is based on the course ARCH 324 - Structures 2 from University of Michigan, USA. The course covers the basic principles of elastic behavior for different materials such as wood, steel, concrete, and composite materials and compares the properties and applications of materials generally. It investigates cross sectional stress and strain behavior in flexure and in shear, and torsion as well as the stability of beams and columns. The qualitative behavior of combined stresses and fractu...

• Package: Project Management (19 resources)
  • This package is based on 1.040 Project Management MIT Course, which focuses on the management and implementation of construction projects, primarily infrastructure projects. A project refers to a temporary piece of work undertaken to create a unique product or service. The field of project management deals with the planning, execution, and controlling of projects. The course is divided into three parts: project finance; project evaluation and project organization. This course will cover the bas...
