Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to extend the scope of teaching of basic compulsory courses Statistics of Building Structures 1 and 2 about other contexts, to acquaint the students with the applications of theory in the preliminary design of load-bearing structures of buildings, to acquaint students more closely with the issue of stability of the slender structures and with the possibilities of solving more complex, statically indeterminate structures using computers. Topic range: 1. Fundamentals of plastic analysis of cross sections and structures. Stability of slender and thin-walled structures. 2. Fundamentals of dynamics of building structures - harmonic oscillations, resonance. 3. Stiffness of cross section and stiffness of structure Extension of the Schwedler theorem - relations between loads - shear force, bending moment and deflection of the member. 4. Principles and methods of solving statically indeterminate structures. 5. The use of computers for static solution of structures - finite element method, basics of static solution of structures on PC in the computer room of the faculty.
A deeper understanding of the functioning of even more complex load-bearing structures of buildings, the ability to choose the right type of load-bearing structure and the ability of qualified preliminary design of the main proportions and dimensions of the load-bearing structure of the building. Better ability to cooperate with a structural engineer in solving complex building load-bearing structures.
