| Educational objectives | The main goal of the Course is to provide students with basic knowledge of structural design of components and systems in reinforced concrete and steel. |
| Prerequisites | In order to more easily understand and be able to apply the teached concepts you need to have successfully supported the examination of Structural Mechanics and Strenght of Materials. |
| 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 | Class attendance is recommended. |
| 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 | 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 (35 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. |
