Teaching in the first semester, review in January
Schedule
Units courses prerequisite and corequisite
Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
Elastic methods of structural analysis : Introduction - Basic theorems - Flexibility method (classical) - Stiffness method (classical, simplified, use of software) - Moment distribution method - Influence lines Plastic global analysis (basic theorems, static and kinematic methods) Worked examples.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
This course is particularly dedicated to the analysis of statically undeterminate structures.
Deliver the background of the methods of global analysis and train to the determination of internal forces and displacements in a given structure subjected to a given loading.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills
Course on mechnics of materials
FUNDAMENTAL: The student must absolutely master determination of effects of actions in statically determined structures
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
A substantial part of the lectures is devoted to exercises to be solved by the students or worked out by the assistant.
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)
Lectures and exercises are organised alternately. Some marked exercices are organised during the courses, with advance notice to the students.
Recommended or required readings
Lecture notes are available at "La centrale des cours".
Powerpoint presentations will be available.
Assessment methods and criteria
Written exam covering both theory and exercises.
40% for the marked tests made during the year.
60% for the written examination
The marks obtained at the tests during the year are considered only if they don't penalize the final mark (this is judged for each test separately).
It is a prerequesit to this course to be able to determine the effects of action in a statically determinate structure. Failing to do so leads to a "fail" for the course.

Organizational remarks
In 2017-2018, the course will be during the first quadrimester, on Monday from 1:30 to 5:30 pm.

Liste of the questions forthe oral exam.
COmpared to the list used last year, question 9 of the second group has disppeared. The topics that it covered are intergrated within the other questions related to various calculation methods.
