  • Undergraduate study programme term essay - 24 hours per semester
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to familiarize students with the historical development of reinforced concrete structures, the basics of technology and execution of reinforced concrete structures, a detailed introduction to reinforced concrete as a building material, the possibilities of its use in building construction and architecture, and subsequently an introduction to the elements of reinforced concrete structures, their dimensioning and reinforcement.
1. Student is able to consider the structural system as an integral part of the architectural design. 2. Student iIs able to apply knowledge of reinforced concrete structures in the early design phase with regard to feasibility and technical limitations. 3. Student is able to communicate with specialist designers in the design and coordination of reinforced concrete structures. 4. Student is able to make technically sound decisions in connection with the selection of the type of structure and its dimensioning.
