Aims :

The lessons of course develop general topics about advanced method of calculus of structures. Principal objective is a general forming of students about the design of structures.

Topics :

Actions: Types of loads: dead load and permanent loads, service loads, load of snow, wind, thermal variation loads, seismic loads. Combinations loads for service analysis and ultimate state.
RC and pre-stressed RC structures: Design and calculus of RC structures second the ultimate method of calculus. Structural systems. RC plates and shells. Structural testing.
Foundations and retaining walls: Direct foundations and deep foundations. Models of calculus. Interaction soil and foundation structures.
Masonry, timber and steel structures: Principals of calculus and design.
