Objectives of the Course
|
To prepare a qualified civil engineer to deal with the engineering materials (Concrete –steel….etc) and use these materials in design of steel and concrete structures- The module also educates the student as to how the strength of material used in civil engineering is evaluated. Along with the behaviors of these materials under different types of stresses and strains undergone during such loading.
