Reference texts
Pozzati, P. : "Teoria e tecnica delle strutture", Vol. 2°, Parte 2a, UTET
Oberti, G. "Corso di Tecnica delle Costruzioni, Parte C, Levrotto e Bella.
Doebelin, E. O.: "Measurement Systems: Application and Design".
Educational objectives
Acquire the ability to carry out tests on existing structures and to evaluate the obtained results.
Prerequisites
Knowledge of materials and structural mechanics.
Teaching methods
Frontal lessons.
Other information
Basic knowledge on the dynamics of structures, even if not compulsory, facilitates the learning of the subject.
Learning verification modality
The exam includes an oral test. This test consists of a discussion lasting about 30 minutes aimed at ascertaining the level of knowledge of the theoretical-methodological contents of the course with particular reference to the design of experimental investigations and the interpretation of the results obtained.
Extended program
Fundamentals of measurement, dimensional analysis, theory of errors, metrological qualities of measuring instruments, random errors,
dynamic behavior of instruments, instruments for measuring displacements, speeds, accelerations. Model experimentation.
Obiettivi Agenda 2030 per lo sviluppo sostenibile
Industry, innovation and infrastructure.

Sustainable cities and communities.
