A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Structural steel material selection and properties

This topic focuses on how structural steel is chosen for a given engineering use and the material properties that govern its behaviour in service. For examinations, you must understand the meaning of key mechanical and physical properties, how they affect design and fabrication, and the practical basis for selecting one steel over another.
