Course description
Steel has been used in construction of tall buildings since the 19th Century but nowadays steel has become an option for smaller buildings and even personal residences. Steel is a “Recycle” product, thus we can use recycle steel in the construction of buildings and other civil structures.Steel has many advantages over concrete, faster method of construction meaning better for business. Because of its increased durability and low maintenance, it is an attractive building materialThus understanding steel and learning how to design steel structures will help to prepare for the future industry.
