Final Exam Schedules

The final exam will be closed book, open AISC Steel Manual with handwritten added notes. No textbook or loose notes permitted. You can add any handwritten notes in the last blank pages in your LRFD Manual. These can include example solutions or anything of your choice.

You must also bring a copy of the Fundamentals of Engineering Exam Reference Manual, Steel Design section. Click here for a copy.

Please note that to pass this class you MUST be able design simple tension members to resist axial loads, to design beams to resist LTB, to design a column, and to design simple bolted or welded connections. These are minimum competencies. Things like combined bending and axially loaded members will likely be on the final, but being unable to do the simple things listed above will require that you find a better prof and retake this class. I simply cannot have you designing my old folk’s home and dropping a beam on me in 20 years.

To get the plate thickness, you would actually have to know if the load pointing down on the top flange was caused by another beam running across the top of our beam, or if it was due to a vertical column sitting on the top of the flange.

We will assume that it is a beam going across our beam.  Design the plate thickness just like you would if our beam were pressed up into a plate embedded in a concrete ceiling. I.e. get a reasonable plate size, at least one dimension of which extends across the width of the top flange of our beam and no shorter than the flange width of the crossing beam (you could assume the plate is square), unless you need a longer value for N from web shear/crippling/etc.

Then divide the load coming into our beam by the plate area to get the pressure between the top flange of out beam and the plate, and design the plate thickness using equation 5.13 on page 256.

An HSS 6.625 x 0.250 is on page [1-98].

It’s a tube and you’re probably rummaging around in the rectangular shapes.  You’ll get more familiar with these things as you spend more time looking around at what’s in the Manual.

What is a Flipped Class?

Posted on August 3, 2021 by Abigail Stason

A flipped class is the presentation of a critical tipping point in a class, often on video with other reference materials.  It is material assigned to the student before it is covered in class, and is then later covered during a regularly scheduled class.  The student is assigned to go over the flipped material before the presentation in class to give time to consider what parts they don’t understand, and to generate questions which may not be answered in the normal class presentation.

In a regular class the professor usually goes over the material in class and asks if you have any questions, which you seldom do since you didn’t understand most of what was just said.  Too fast, not your native language, napping, texting, answering critical email, came in late, playing Angry Birds, talking to your neighbor about how boring the class is, …   the possibilities are endless.  But not to worry because you’ll figure it out after you get home, right?  If you find time.  Which you seldom do.  Perhaps the prof will cover it again later.  Nope.  Then sure enough, a similar problem shows up on an exam and you don’t have a clue how to work it.  And even worse, not knowing how to do that caused you to lose more points on the next exam, and again on the final.

A flipped class gives you the opportunity to watch a content rich video on a particularly difficult or important subject before it is covered in class.  Usually the material is close to the same as you would (will) get in class.  The difference is that you have time to stop, replay, and absorb the material.  You get to watch it at a time of your choice, when you aren’t continually falling asleep.  What this does is give you time to realize what you really don’t understand, watch it again, compare what is there with what the book has.  When the flipped material is then covered in class, if you still don’t understand something you can ask specific questions about it.

So, you may ask, if the material is going to be presented again in class, why should you view the video?  It prepares you to learn material which is critical in working a whole host of other things in the course.

How important is the flipped material to your overall grade?  Believe me, those videos take all kinds of time to  plan and record.  If that particular piece of information were not the source of major confusion in previous semesters, the prof would never take the time and effort to put them together.  They cover critical subjects that seriously affect your grade throughout the remainder of the course, and often your grades in subsequent courses.

Example?

Mr. Jones’ grade in Statics, CVEN 221: B.  Would have made an A but couldn’t draw shear and moment diagrams.
Mr. Jones’ grade in Mechanics of Materials, CVEN 305: C.  Would have made an A but couldn’t design a beam because he couldn’t get the moment in the beam because he couldn’t draw shear and moment diagrams.
Mr. Jones’ grade in Structural Analysis, CVEN 345: D.   Would have made an B but couldn’t determine the reactions on a statically indeterminate structure because he couldn’t draw shear and moment diagrams.
Mr. Jones grade in Steel Design, CVEN 446: F.  Would have made a B but couldn’t determine the Lateral Torsional Buckling coefficient because he couldn’t draw shear and moment diagrams.
Mr. Jones’ grade in Folklore Literature and World Culture, ENGL 412: B.  (His new major).

I highly recommend that you go over the assigned flipped class materials before we cover them in class.  There aren’t that many of them, and they will benefit you greatly.

NOTE that you MUST be registered in CVEN 446 Section 503 (Lowery) this semester to get your coupon code. You can pay online, or by mail, and they will ship the book directly to you. The price shown is greatly reduced from anything else you can get. Upon request I will e-mail your coupon code to you. Please note that they have issued only one code for the students in the class. Please do not give it to anyone. We only have codes for the number of students in the class. If someone else uses your code to order a manual, it won’t be easy to get another one. Once you have your code, please follow the instructions above. E-mail your request for a code to Lowery@tamu.edu using the subject: Request – Your Name – AISC Manual Code.

Textbook: Because of some confusion about different sections using no text, or Segui, or Geschwindner, I really don’t care which text you get.  The text listed by the bookstore is Geschwindner, but the information in both texts is comparable.  Get whichever you like, but I strongly recommend that you get one or the other.  Don’t go without a text if at all possible.

One choice: Steel Design by William T. Segui: Thompson Brooks/Cole, 5th edition only – ISBN-10 Number 1111576009    or   ISBN-13: 9781111576004

The Segui textbook is excellent.

Please note that to pass this class you MUST be able design simple tension members to resist axial loads, to design beams to resist LTB, to design a column. These are minimum competencies. Things like combined bending and axially loaded members will likely be on the final, but being unable to do the simple things listed above will require that you find a better prof and retake this class. I simply cannot take the chance of you designing my old folk’s home (or sepulcher) and dropping a beam on my head in 20 years.
