ARCH464

Prerequisite: ARCH462, ARCH463, and PHYS121; and MATH120 or MATH140, or equivalent; or permission of the ARCH-Architecture Program. Corequisite: ARCH401 or ARCH406. Restriction: Must be in either BS in Architecture or M.Architecture Program. Credit only granted for: ARCH411 or ARCH464. This course covers the basic principles of architectural structures, including the influence of geometric, sectional, and material properties related to flexure and shear in beam and framed systems; vector mechanics with application to analysis of trusses, catenaries, and arches; diagrammatic analysis of beams for bending moment, shear, and deflection as well as the study of structural framing systems for vertical and lateral loads.
