provides graduate study and research opportunities in a broad range of subject areas in structural engineering and structural materials the objective of the program is to provide a quality education that is well balanced in theoretical and practical considerations there is a general emphasis on application of computer techniques and on experimental research the research program in structural engineering and structural materials at virginia tech spans a number of subject areas the thomas m murray structures and materials laboratory is located on the campus of virginia tech the laboratory includes a wide range of structural and materials testing equipment that can be used to conduct experimental research on full scale structural components and conduct performance evaluations of civil engineering materials a total of 17 000 sq ft of laboratory and office space is available facilities central to the experimental capabilities of the structures laboratory is the 3600 sq ft 350 m2 structural reaction floor the approximately 30 ft by 120 ft 9 m x 38 m floor is constructed with four w36x150 w920x223 steel beams encased in 3 5 ft 1 m deep reinforced concrete the top flanges of the beams are exposed to permit connection of test frames the troughs also provide locations for hydraulic and electrical lines approximately 300 000 pounds 1350 kn of uplift can be resisted at any given location on the floor cee structural engineers at work sem event calendar the structural engineering and materials graduate program at virginia tech offers the master of science and ph d degrees in
