Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is offered to students of any study field.
Course objectives supported by learning outcomes
Students will learn types of load structures, and will know when to apply them. S/he will learn the problems of the dynamic behavior of structures.
Learning outcomes
Upon successful completion of the course the student can:
- calculate the center of gravity of the cross-section and determine the ellipse of inertia, determine degrees of freedom and static design
- determine the reaction of beams and calculate their size
- calculate the axial forces in the static fixed trusses
- determine the course of internal forces on statically certain solid beams (bracket, plain beam, inclined beam, beam, slab and wall)
- determine the effects of more complex statically certain structures (triangular arc and gerber beam)
- to explain the behavior of statically indeterminate constructions and will know in theory the ways of their calculation.
Based on the information and skills acquired, he / she will be able to decide on the choice and support of the load-bearing structure.
