Improve Building Safety, Strength and Stability
Stability doesn’t just mean support. For buildings and infrastructure, it’s the backbone of strength, safety, reliability and durability. It also translates to a longer-lasting structure that prioritizes its occupants and the surrounding community.
的 structural engineering professional concentration trains you to design more stable and resilient buildings and infrastructure projects. Explore the relationship between structural design and mechanics to create structures that support specific loads. Further learn about materials and construction methods that lessen a project’s environmental impact.
Use your electives to gain a specialization in structural engineering and design. 在完成, the structural engineering professional concentration will appear on your transcript.
This concentration is only available to civil engineering undergraduate students.
Why 研究 Structural Engineering at Clarkson?
Multiple engineering disciplines go into constructing a building. Of these, structural engineering determines how much load a project should support. Engineers then use this information to improve stability.
Those in this role additionally reference knowledge of:
- 建筑材料
- 力学
- Computer-aided design methods
- 结构分析
- 的 properties and uses of concrete and steel
In turn, structural engineers become essential for designing:
- 建筑
- 桥梁
- Harbors and other off-shore fixtures
- 水路
- 高速公路
- Water treatment facilities
- Boat and vehicle structures
- 地铁系统
- 发电厂
- 管道
结构工程师ing also helps promote sustainable design through multiple channels. Learn more about environmentally friendly building materials and more stable structural systems that minimize future repairs and upgrades.
