Structures and Properties of Metals
The online engineering PDH course addresses two aspects of metals. The first part of this course deals with the basic structures of metals and how those structures are affected by various processes. In addition, it contains information on the various imperfections and defects that the metal may sustain and how they affect the metal. The second part contains information on metal properties which are considered when selecting material for engineering design purposes. Each of these properties contains a discussion on how the property is affected and the metal's application.
This 7 PDH online course is applicable to structural and mechanical engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of the structures and properties of metals.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding bonding
