Structural
Engineer
Structural engineers analyze,
design, plan, and research
structural
components and
structural
systems. Their work takes
account mainly of technical,
economic and environmental concerns,
but they may also consider aesthetic
and social factors.
Structural engineering is usually
considered a specialty discipline
within
civil
engineering, but it can
also be studied in its own right. In
the US, most practising structural
engineers are currently licensed as
civil
engineers, but the
situation varies from state to
state. In the UK, most structural
engineers in the building industry
are members of the
Institution of
Structural Engineers
rather than the
Institution of
Civil Engineers.
Structural engineers ensure that
buildings and bridges are built to
be strong enough and stable enough
to resist all appropriate
structural
loads (e.g., gravity,
wind, snow, rain, seismic (earthquake),
earth pressure, temperature, and
traffic). They also design
structures to be
stiff
enough to not
deflect
or
vibrate
beyond acceptable limits.
Fatigue
may be an important consideration
for bridges and for aircraft design,
or for other structures which
experience a large number of stress
cycles over their lifetime.
Consideration is also given to
durability of materials against
possible deterioration which may
impair performance over the design
lifetime. From Wikipedia, the free
