Course Title: Especialización En Ingeniería Estructural En Acero; Módulo 2: Pórticos Especiales a Momento

Módulo 2 Description:

🔍 Objective of the Module: This module focuses on applying the principles and calculations of member strengths, specifically regarding moment and shear loads, in accordance with the ANSI/AISC360-16 Normative. Through a practical exercise using the MATLAB software, you will gain hands-on experience in understanding and calculating these forces.

🏫 Key Concepts Covered:

• Member in Flexion and Shear: Learn how to calculate the moments of inertia (I) and understand their significance in member strength calculations. Discover how modifications in support conditions, such as changing a joint from fixed to continuous, can affect flexural resistance.

• Resistance to Flexion: Explore the factors that influence the resistance of an steel beam to flexion, including the importance of preventing lateral buckling by ensuring proper support conditions and cross-sectional dimensions.

🔧 Special Considerations in Design:

• Local Pandeo Alas: Understand the risks associated with thin wing plates that can lead to failure due to local buckling under compression. Learn how to design wings to avoid such failures.

• Falla Local del Alma: Examine the potential for failure at the web of the beam, particularly at points of applied loads and supports, where deformations are concentrated. Study how to reinforce the web to prevent crushing and buckling.

🌀 Pandeo Lateral Torsional: Investigate the complex behavior of beams under combined flexural and torsional moments, especially when constraints on lateral movement result in lateral-torsional buckling. Learn how to calculate the critical sections for such phenomena and how to ensure adequate resistance against it.

Why This Module is Crucial: Understanding these principles and being able to apply them correctly is essential for designing safe and efficient structural steel systems. This module will equip you with the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required to tackle real-world engineering challenges related to special moment frames.
