Course objectives (capabilities pursued and learning results):

The main objective is the understanding of the principles of structural analysis. The lectures concern the determination of the stress and deformation of statically determinate structures and the determination of influence lines. Finally, the students are introduced to the principle of virtual work, the reciprocal theorems and their applications in structural analysis. The result is the familiarization of the students with the statically determinate structures and the comprehension of the stress flow in different structural systems.
