| Contents | The course covers the following main topics: beam theory, support and boundary conditions, solution of statically indeterminate structural systems by means of the Force Method, plasticity and strength criteria. |
| Reference texts | Recommended Textbooks: 1. Viola, E.: Esercitazioni di Scienza delle costruzioni (Volumi I e II). Pitagora, 1993. 2. Camiciotti, R., Cecchi, A.: Esercizi di Scienza delle Costruzioni (Volume III). Edizione Morelli, 1998. Didactic Materials: Lecture slides, problem sets with solutions, tables, videos, and other course materials are available through the Unistudium platform. |
| Educational objectives | The main objective of the course is to provide students with the fundamental knowledge required for a proper understanding of the basic concepts and principles of Structural Mechanics, enabling them to acquire the tools necessary for the structural analysis of one-dimensional members with different cross-sections and geometries. The course also includes laboratory activities on the mechanical testing of structures and structural materials, aimed at bridging theoretical concepts and experimental practice. The expected learning outcomes include: • Acquisition of knowledge (Dublin Descriptor 1): The Force Method for the analysis of statically indeterminate planar elastic structures; Stress representation and transformation, including the graphical representation of stress states through Mohr’s Circle; Plasticity, strength, and structural safety criteria. • Ability to apply theoretical knowledge to practical cases involving the analysis of plane elastic frame structures (Dublin Descriptor 2) and independent judgment in selecting suitable approaches for structural modelling and analysis (Dublin Descriptor 3), with reference to: The analysis of statically determinate and statically indeterminate structures; Stress and strain analysis at a point; The identification of design constraints and boundary conditions governing a structural problem; The interpretation of stress states through analytical and graphical methods, including the use of Mohr’s Circle. |
| Prerequisites | Successful completion of the Structural Mechanics course is a prerequisite for attending this course and for understanding the topics covered. |
| Teaching methods | Lectures and practical classroom exercises, during which the topics covered in the course are presented and discussed. |
| Other information | Further information is available on the Unistudium course page. The instructor is available for consultations at the end of each lecture. Additional meetings, either in person or via Microsoft Teams, can be arranged by appointment. |
| Learning verification modality | The examination consists of an oral assessment aimed at evaluating the student's level of knowledge and understanding of the theoretical and methodological topics covered in the course syllabus. As part of the examination, students will be required to solve a statically indeterminate structure using the appropriate analytical methods. In this context, students' ability to work independently, as well as the clarity, accuracy, and appropriateness of their technical language, will also be assessed. |
| Extended program | The course builds upon and complements the knowledge acquired in previous structural mechanics courses. In particular, starting from the concepts of the statics of bent beams, the following topics will be developed, with a strong emphasis on practical applications: 1. Review and advanced topics in Statics; 2. Beam mechanics: Support and boundary conditions; Beam kinematics; Beam statics; Calculation and graphical representation of internal action diagrams (axial force, shear force and bending moment); Internal releases and discontinuities; Analysis of statically indeterminate structures using the Force Method; Application of the Force Method to open statically indeterminate structures; Application of the Force Method to closed statically indeterminate structures; 3. Plasticity and Strength Criteria: stress–strain relationship; structural safety verification based on the Tresca and Von Mises failure criteria. |
