Detailed Analysis

CourseMarks Score®

8.9 / 10

CourseMarks Score® helps students to find the best classes. We aggregate 18 factors, including freshness, student feedback and content diversity.

Freshness Score

7.6 / 10
This course was last updated on 5/2020.

Course content can become outdated quite quickly. After analysing 71,530 courses, we found that the highest rated courses are updated every year. If a course has not been updated for more than 2 years, you should carefully evaluate the course before enrolling.

Student Feedback

9.7 / 10
We analyzed factors such as the rating (4.6/5) and the ratio between the number of reviews and the number of students, which is a great signal of student commitment.

New courses are hard to evaluate because there are no or just a few student ratings, but Student Feedback Score helps you find great courses even with fewer reviews.

Content Score

8.9 / 10
Video Score: 7.8 / 10
The course includes 1h 50m video content. Courses with more videos usually have a higher average rating. We have found that the sweet spot is 16 hours of video, which is long enough to teach a topic comprehensively, but not overwhelming. Courses over 16 hours of video gets the maximum score.
The average video length is 3 hours 18 minutes of 131 Civil Engineering courses on Udemy.

Description

The world of engineering can be both fascinating and daunting for newcomers!
That is why I have created this beginner course to introduce you to the basics of steel design in a more welcoming way. Please note the course is in metric units and will often reference the Eurocode.
If you are looking for a solid introduction to, or refresher on, steel design where we run through:
•When to use steel
•How it fails
•Different loading conditions
•Lateral Restraint
•Stress/Strain and yield strengths
•Bending, Axial and Shear Resistance (including an example of each)
•Combined Axial and Bending Resistance (including example)
Then this course may be for you! I focus on not only running through the theory, but also real world considerations that are not often found in the text books.
I have also included examples on bending, shear and axial failure as well as introducing you to lateral torsional buckling (we’ll only run through what LTB is, the calculations are a bit too advanced for here).
This course has been specifically designed to give value to you, the student, and lifetime access means you will receive all future updates and additions free of charge.
If you are not 100% sure this course is for you, feel free to take a look around. If you are not convinced, there is a 30 day money back guarantee with no hard feelings or questions asked.
Thanks for taking the time to view this course, and I hope to see you in there!!

You will learn

✓ The basics of structural loading and limit state design
✓ The advantages, and disadvantages, of using structural steelwork
✓ An understanding of the failure modes in bending, axial, shear and lateral torsional buckling (LTB is introduced only)
✓ Examples of how to calculate the design resistance against bending, shear, axial and combined failure (lateral torsional buckling calculations are beyond this course)

Creative Construction Courses
Hi,
I am a practising engineer in a design consultancy, with over a decade’s experience in structural design who is passionate about structural engineering. 
After studying at four different universities in two different countries, I have completed modules up to a masters level in steel building and concrete building design. With the educational base and hands on experience within the industry I plan on creating courses available to everyone. 
I was paying almost £2000 per subject at masters level and believe this information should be affordably available to whomever is willing to take the time to learn.
