Learning Objectives
The course aims at providing a working knowledge of the theory and design of steel and reinforced concrete structures, from the general principles of structural safety to current semi-probabilistic limit state formats, concerning structural elements and their connections under different stress conditions.
Prerequisites
Theory of beams from the course of “Strength of Materials”
Teaching Methods
Class lessons and exercises
Further information
Type of Assessment
The verification of learning takes place through an oral test.
Through theoretical questions, short exercises, and critical discussions with the teacher, it will be verified:
- the knowledge of the main methodologies relating to the analysis and design of civil engineering structural elements, both made of reinforced concrete and steel;
- the ability to clearly explain the concepts learnt and to appropriately use the terminology of the discipline;
- the ability to acquire the methodological tools to continue his/her studies and provide autonomously for his/her own continuing education of the topics dealt with in the field of Civil Engineering.
