An introduction to the structural design of members and connections for steel structures in accordance with the National Building Code of Canada and the applicable CSA-S16 design standards. Design principles are based on Limit States Design. Types of members and components include tension members, beams, columns, and beam-columns, as well as bolted and welded connections. Emphasis is placed on basic design and fabrication procedures. Design forces for framed structures are determined using second-order elastic analysis with notional lateral loads. Prerequisite(s): CE 321.3.
