Course objectives supported by learning outcomes

The aim is to present design of wooden and metal elements of structures according to European technical standards including the development of drawings. After successful completion of the course students know design principles of steel and timber structures, they can design and evaluate the elements of the basic types of stress (tension, compression, bending and shear), including its combinations. They can establish deformation of element, know the other aspects of design and usability of construction and connecting elements, including computational models and they are able to design basic types of wood joints and steel structures.
