Structural engineering II
Code: -
|
ICAR/09
Theories and techniques aimed at both the structural conception and dimensioning of new constructions, and the assessment and rehabilitation of the existing ones (also of historical interest). Cover the definition of actions on structures and the evaluation of their effects based on the types and forms of the resisting elements, taking also into account the interaction with the soil and the environment. The design and assessment methods consider both the serviceability (comfort, durability) and the ultimate (failure) limit states. Reference is made also to the construction methods and techniques, as well as to experimental testing, inspection and continuous monitoring of structures.

Objectives:
The course provides the basic knowledge and methodologies for the design of structural elements made of modern and traditional construction materials (masonry, reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete, steel) and for the understanding of the structural behaviour of existing constructions and their structural assessment. During the course, reference is made to the most recent structural codes, particularly Italian Technical Regulations and Eurocodes.
