Learning Objectives

  • Structural Engineering

    The aim of the course is to provide the student with the theoretical knowledge and application skills needed for the design of steel and concrete structures. First, a geometric model will be defined to represent the structure. Second, the internal forces will be determined. Finally, the cross-section of the members will be verified.

  • Structural Engineering

    Development of knowledges for the design of steel structures and reinforced concrete structures.
