Course Description

A structural engineer's primary goal is to ensure safety in the structures. By properly designing and analysing structural elements, you can ensure that loads are transferred more efficiently. The foundations are the key component of bridges. They transfer the load from the other components to the ground. This course is designed to teach you how to design different types of foundations for bridges.

Design of Bridge Foundations will provide you with deep insight into foundation selection, the different loads that can be placed on them, and geotechnical parameters. This course will give you all the necessary skills to design bridge foundations. It also includes projects that allow you to put all of the academic knowledge into practice.
