| Educational objectives | The Laboratory aims to provide students with the technical information which together with the theoretical information learned in the main module of the Course allow the design of simple constructions in structural concrete and steel. |
| Prerequisites | In order to be able to understand and apply the majority of the techniques described within the Course, you must have successfully passed the Structural Mechanics and Strength of Materials exam. |
| Teaching methods | The Laboratory foresees the development in the classroom of two simple projects carried out in a group with the assistance of the teacher. |
| Other information | Additional information materials will be provided through the university's teaching platform. |
| Learning verification modality | The exam includes an oral test with illustration of a technical report produced by group work. This test will last about 15 minutes and will aim to ascertain the level of knowledge and understanding reached by the student on the theoretical and methodological contents indicated in the teaching program. This test will also allow to verify the student's communication skills with language properties and autonomous organization of the exhibition on the same theoretical topics. |
| Extended program | The Laboratory is divided in two parts: Part I: Structural steel (25 hours) In the first part the Laboratory provides the structural design (calculations and drawings) of a simple structural system made ¿¿of steel. Part II: Reinforced concrete (20 hours) In the second part the Laboratory provides the structural design (calculations and drawings) of a simple structural system made ¿¿of structural concrete. |

| Contents | The course consists of three teaching units. The first teaching unit deals with the topic of structural safety, with reference also to the current regulations on the subject. The second and third units deal with the structural design of reinforced concrete structures and steel structures. Classroom exercises are also planned to apply the theoretical concepts seen during the theoretical lecture hours to simple structural problems. |

| Educational objectives | The course aims at providing the theoretical and normative references for the use in industrial and civil constructions of steel and structural concrete. |
| Prerequisites | In order to be able to understand and apply the majority of the techniques described within the Course, you must have successfully passed the Structural Mechanics and Strength of Materials exam. |
| Teaching methods | The course is organized as follows: - frontal lesson on all the topics of the course; - classroom exercise; - visits in precast factories, carpentry workshops and construction sites (if possible). |
| Other information | Additional information materials will be provided through the university's teaching platform. |
| Learning verification modality | The exam includes a written test, an oral test and the illustration of a technical report produced by a working group. The written test consists in performing two numerical exercises. The first concerns the steel structures and may be relevant to the verification/design of element/structural system and its bolted or welded connections. The second exercise is instead relevant to reinforced concrete structures and may be relevant to the verification/design of element/structural system. The oral exam is a discussion lasting about 45 minutes aimed at ascertaining the level of knowledge and understanding achieved by students on the theoretical and methodological implications listed in the teaching program. This trial will also test the ability of communication of the student and of autonomous organization of the exposure on the theoretical topics. |
| Extended program | The course consists of three teaching units and related exercises: Teaching unit I: Theoretical Fundamentals (25 hours) The methodology of structural design. Structural reliability. Types and Patterns of actions and materials. Eurocodes and Italian legislation. Elastic analysis of frames. The measure of security in terms of forces, components of stress, tension. Teaching Unit II: Structural steel (25 hours) Steel structures: materials, method of calculation; resistance tests, stability tests, practical rules for the design and execution; legislation. Teaching Unit III: Reinforced concrete structures (25 hours) Construction of reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete: materials, method of calculation; resistance tests, stability tests, practical rules for the design and execution; legislation. Exercises (15 hours) Examples of design and verification of individual structural elements of simple structural systems (frames, portals), links and nodes for the steel construction for those in structural concrete. Such examples will serve as the basis for the development of the technique developed in the Laboratory of Construction. |
