CEN4029-N Advanced Structural Design.

Numerical Analysis and Design Report

Learning Outcome 1: Demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge and critical understanding of complex mathematical and computer models relevant to structural design as well as an appreciation of their limitations.

Learning Outcome 2. Interpret knowledge of current practice, relevant to structural design, its limitations and an appreciation of likely new developments.

Learning Outcome 3. Extract and manipulate data pertinent to an unfamiliar problem, and apply its solution using computer based structural engineering tools where appropriate.

Learning Outcome 4. Demonstrate the ability to adapt a wide and comprehensive knowledge of the analytical elements in the application of the structural engineering design processes and their methodologies, to unfamiliar situations.

Learning Outcome 5. Integrate evidence and concepts taken from technical literature and other information sources to solve foreseen and unforeseen structural engineering design problems.

Learning Outcome 6. Apply a critical knowledge of the requirement for structural engineering design activities to promote sustainable development and its impact on wider environmental issues.

Learning Outcome 7. Make informed professional judgements in the application of codes of practice and industry standards used in structural and civil engineering, as well as in the wider engineering context.

Learning Outcome 8. Demonstrate competency in computing skills commensurate with the demands of research/scholarship in structural design.

Learning Outcome 9. Collaborate effectively with others in ways appropriate to the structural engineering profession.
