1 1: Instructor Angelo State University Syllabus CENG 3361: Structural Analysis I Section 010 Mon, Wed, & Fri 11:00-11:50 am Spring Semester 2017 Professor Daniel I. Castaneda Office Phone: (325) Office: West Annex daniel.castaneda@angelo.edu Office Hours: M 12-1pm, TW 12:30-1:30pm 2: Textbooks and Required Materials Hibbeler, R. C. (2017) Structural Analysis, 9 th Ed. Pearson Prentice Hall, San Francisco. REQUIRED. 3: Prerequisites ENGR 2332 Mechanics of Materials 4: Course Description This course emphasizes an understanding of the deformation of statically determinate and indeterminate structures under static loading. You will extend your knowledge of load, shear, and moment diagrams in order to calculate deflected shapes using flexibility methods of frames and continuous beams. You will also apply moment distribution, stiffness methods, and influence lines to predict deflected shapes. (3 credit hours with 3 Lecture hours per week) 5: Student Learning Outcomes When you complete this course you should be able to: 1. Apply superposition and equations of equilibrium to assess the determinacy and stability of beams, frames, and trusses [ABET a e k]; 2. Analyze statically determinate trusses using various methods [ABET a e k]; 3. Formulate functions to predict internal load, shear, and moment diagrams of beams, cables, frames, and trusses [ABET a e k]; 4. Utilize influence lines to calculate internal forces as developed by dynamic loads [ABET a e k]; and 5. Calculate deflection of statically determinate and indeterminate beams, frames, and trusses using various methods [ABET a e k]. 6: Course outcome mapping The mapping of the course outcomes to the program outcomes is shown in Table 1. The program outcomes correspond to the listed ABET Criterion 3 student outcomes (a) through (k). Table 1. CENG 3361 course outcome mapping Rev 02 1/6 CENG 3361 Spring 2017

For each lecture, you are expected: 1) to have read the assigned textbook material ahead of time, 2) to be prepared to take a graded reading quiz at the start of every lecture, and 3) to be ready to engage with the lesson materials (through in-class exercises, discussions, and activities). As your instructor, you can expect from me: 1) to be prepared with lecture materials in a timely fashion, 2) to value your time by ending lectures as scheduled, 3) to provide constructive feedback on your homework submissions, and 4) to be adaptive and responsive should scheduling challenges arise. As students, you are preparing to enter into a profession where you will work with persons of different abilities, ages, backgrounds, beliefs, ethnicities, genders, nationalities, religions, sexes, and/or sexualities. With this in mind, every person in this course is expected to demonstrate thoughtfulness and respect toward others who may be different from you in order to maintain a healthy and safe learning experience for everyone. 8: Communication All online communication will be conducted via Blackboard and Piazza. Be attentive to posted homework assignments, lectures, and supplementary materials as they become posted and announced. You are responsible for any posted deadlines. 9: Graded Material 9.1: Class Attendance, Participation, and Timeliness You are a responsible adult, and you are expected to arrive to lecture on-time and be prepared to participate. Attendance and participation will not be noted by the instructor; however, graded reading quizzes will be conducted at the start of lecture and no make-up quiz will be available. There will also be regular in-class work (attention quizzes, exercises, discussion, etc.) that may include a graded component. If you are not present at these activities, then you will receive no credit, which will adversely impact your final grade. Rev 02 2/6 CENG 3361 Spring 2017

3 If you find it necessary to miss a class for an excusable reason (e.g. job interview, family emergency, etc.), then please notify your instructor in advance as early as possible. We will work together to identify makeup work. If you miss class for an inexcusable reason, then no makeup work will be arranged. 9.2: Lecture Reading Quizzes At the start of every lecture, there will be a graded reading quiz that evaluates your understanding of the assigned reading material. These quizzes will test your conceptual and/or technical understanding of the material with simple calculations or short-answer responses. If you miss a lecture reading quiz, then you will receive no credit. 9.3: In-Class Activities and Piazza Participation In lecture, we will have regular attention quizzes, exercises, discussion, etc. in order for you to evaluate your understanding of the material. At times, you may be submitting a component of those in-class activities for a grade. At times, there may be a posted Piazza note that will require your participation. If you do not participate in these in-class activities and Piazza online discussions, then you will receive no credit. 9.4: Homework There will be regular homework assignments that will be due at the start of lecture. These assignments must be completed clearly and legibly for full credit. Homework assignments must be formatted as shown in the example homework assignment uploaded in Blackboard. Any sloppy homework that is not formatted correctly may receive no credit. If you miss a homework submission deadline, then you have no more than 24 hours to turn in your late assignment with a 10% late penalty. No late homework is accepted after 24 hours. 9.5: Exams There will be two midterm exams and one cumulative final exam. Each exam will cover lecture material as noted in the tentative course schedule. Additionally, each exam will cover laboratory material as noted by the instructor as the semester unfolds. Exams will be closed-book meaning that you will not be allowed to use bring any textbooks or sheet of notes with you to the examination. You are allowed to bring a straight-edge and a calculator. Only calculators that are allowed by the Fundamentals of Engineering (FE) and Professional Engineering (PE) exams will be allowed in our class exams. Please refer to the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) for an updated list of acceptable calculators ( Rev 02 3/6 CENG 3361 Spring 2017

Students are responsible for understanding the Academic Honor Code, which is contained in both print and web versions of the Student Handbook. 10.2: American Disability Act Persons with disabilities which may warrant academic accommodations must contact the Student Life Office, Room 112 University Center, in order to request and to implement academic accommodations. 10.3: Religious Holy Day A student who intends to observe a religious holy day should make that intention known in writing to the instructor prior to the absence. A student who is absent from classes for the observance of a religious holy day shall be allowed to take an examination or complete an assignment scheduled for that day within a reasonable time after the absence. 11: Tentative Course Outline The outline below provides a general overview of the course. Updates to this schedule will be provided via Blackboard and announced via Piazza. Rev 02 4/6 CENG 3361 Spring 2017
