土木工程学学士-结构工程

作为结构工程师，您将面临分析和设计结构以确保它们安全地执行其目标的挑战。他们必须支撑自己的体重并抵抗动态环境负荷，例如飓风，地震，暴风雪和洪水。体育场，竞技场，摩天大楼，海上石油结构，太空平台，游乐园，桥梁，办公楼和房屋是涉及结构工程师的众多项目中的一些。您将开发和利用有关钢，混凝土，铝，木材和塑料以及新型和特殊材料的特性和性能的知识。为了确保计划得到遵守，您通常会在施工现场检查并验证工作。
As a structural engineer, you will face the challenge of analyzing and designing structures to ensure that they safely perform their purpose. They must support their own weight and resist dynamic environmental loads such as hurricanes, earthquakes, blizzards, and floods. Stadiums, arenas, skyscrapers, offshore oil structures, space platforms, amusement park rides, bridges, office buildings, and homes are a few of the many types of projects in which structural engineers are involved. You will develop and utilize knowledge of the properties and behaviors of steel, concrete, aluminum, timber, and plastic as well as new and exotic materials. To make certain that the plans are being followed, you will often be on the construction site inspecting and verifying the work.
