Students will be able to
Understand the fundamental concepts of strength of materials.
Describe the basic bending behaviour of beams in a structure.
Understand how materials respond to external forces and the ability to apply this knowledge to analyzed and design structures effectively.
The guest lecture was organized by Department of Civil Engineering in association with American Society of Civil Engineers having Ms. V. Selvapriya, Assistant Professor, Department of Civil Engineering from PSG Institute of Technology and Applied Research (PSG iTech) as resource person for the subject Strength of Materials. She explained clearly about the importance of strength of materials subject among the students and created an awareness about the real time applications for civil engineering students. She also presented on the performance behaviour of structural members in a building due to different loading conditions. Also she elaborated on the bending behaviour of beams emphasizing on the importance of shear force and bending moment diagram. She also briefed about the analysis and design aspects of building.
This event enhanced the knowledge of Civil Engineering students and will help to upgrade themselves in understanding the bending behaviour of beams. Resource person also clarified the doubts raised by the students and interacted with them. Totally 2 faculty members and 76 students from II Year attended and were benefitted from the programme. Pre-quiz and post assessment were also conducted for the students.
