Syllabus
1. Metal structures of industrial buildings (disposition, configuration of structures, roof cladding, roof purlins).
2. Industrial steel buildings (roof girders, construction of crane track, columns, column foot and anchorage, space rigidity).
3. Multi-storey buildings with a steel framework (criteria of design, actions, parts of steel structures and their connections, space rigidity).
4. Metal bridges (parts of a bridge construction, bearings and shutters, mobile bridges, assembling of bridges).
5. Metal structures in hydraulic engineering (types of weir shutters, structure of shutters, lock chamber gates).
6. Special metal structures (tanks, stacks, silos, high diameter pipelines, towers and masts, structures of technical equipment).
