INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS (These pages were developed by JK
during the 1990s for use by his civil and structural engineering students and
also for his students of architecture. They remain as an early example of the
use of the web in teaching.) |
STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING CASE STUDIES (These pages were used by JKs students
in the 1990s as real world examples of structures
which embodied many of the concepts which he taught to undergraduate and
postgraduate students at Newcastle University) |
