| Outline and Purpose of the Course | The structural design method is going to shift to the performance based design. Since applications of new construction methods and new technology can be accelerated by the use of performance based design, it is necessary to evaluate the performance of structures by the material and structural tests. In this class, the various test methods under static and dynamic loading will be discussed including shaking table test, wind tunnel test and nondestructive evaluation. Instrumentation to measure strain, force, acceleration, temperature and other physical state variables is also discussed through the course work. | |||
| Course Goals | To carry out the structural performance evaluation by material test and structural test based on fundamental understanding of measurement of strain, deflection and vibration in conjunction with the development of design methodology, computing technology, electronics and instrumentations. | |||
