Structural Engineering
Document Content and Description Below
Structural engineering entails training structural engineers to design and construct safe structures that are capable of enduring any stress or pressure from the surrounding environment. The engineers ... are also required to check and upgrade the structural integrity of existing structures. David B. Steinman was a prominent structural engineer who was well known for building several suspension bridges. Examples of his successful projects were Carquinez Bridge, Grand Mere, Waldo-Hancock, and Mackinac Straits Bridge. Steinman innovations included applying center ties to stabilize structures and incorporating stiffening cables to connect the superstructure to various points. Though engineers might apply some of the knowledge from Steinman’s period in current engineering projects, advancement in technology and extensive engineering research has led to the improvement or removal of some of these ideas.
