Marine Structures for Steel Applications

Formation of static systems of marine structures for steel applications (jetties, trestles, dolphins, offshore platforms, offshore wind turbines), selection of suitable cross-sections, connection detailing, link of design with method of construction. Modelling of marine steel structures (selection of software, finite elements type and mesh, connection modelling). Methods of analysis of marine steel structures (static & dynamic analyses, linear & non-linear analyses, evaluation of results). Dimensioning (Checks according to the limit states philosophy, design requirements – failure criteria, member design – buckling lengths, joint design, fatigue). Structural drawings of steel structures (General layout, shop, assembly and erection drawings).
