in Collaboration with Enhanced Regional EUASEAN Dialogue Instrument (E-READI)


SYNOPSIS   

This lecture introduces the principles and practices of designing steel structures in accordance with the Eurocodes, a set of harmonized European standards for structural engineering. It covers the fundamentals of Eurocode 3 (EN 1993), which governs the design of steel components, connections, and systems under various loading conditions. Participants will gain insights into limit state design, material selection, structural safety, and serviceability criteria. The session also highlights practical applications, including frame analysis, member sizing, and stability checks, with emphasis on compliance and optimization. Ideal for engineers, students, and professionals seeking to align with international design standards.
