Objectives
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS TO ACQUIRE:
TO LEARN THE BASICS OF THE STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS AND OF THE DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC AREAS.
TO ACQUIRE THE BASIC KNOWLEDGE OF THE DESIGN OF ISOSTATIC AND STATICALLY INDETERMINATED PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAMS AND TO DEEPEN THE KNOWLEDGE ON THE DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE AND STEEL STRUCTURES ACCORDING TO THE "SEMI-PROBABILISTIC LIMIT STATE METHOD".

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
KNOW THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES ALSO UNDER SEISMIC ACTIONS.
PROVE TO HAVE ACHIEVED AN ADEQUATE UNDERSTANDING OF THE DESIGN METHODS OF REINFORCED CONCRETE, PRESTRESSED CONCRETE AND STEEL STRUCTURES UNDER GRAVITY LOADS.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
DEMONSTRATE TO HAVE GAINED A GOOD DESIGN PRACTICE WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO THOSE CASES STUDIED DURING THE COURSE, I.E.: SEISMIC DESIGN OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMED BUILDING ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT ITALIAN BUILDING CODE (NTC 2018) UP TO THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL; DESIGN OF A POST-TENSIONED CONCRETE BEAM.

JUDGMENT AUTONOMY:
DEMONSTRATE TO HAVE UNDERSTANDING THE ACTUAL STRUCTURAL BEHAVIOR UNDER ACTIONS OF DIFFERENT NATURE THUS PROVING TO BE ABLE TO SOLVE THE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS PROPOSED DURING THE COURSE WITHOUT RESORTING ONLY TO MNEMONIC LEARNING

COMMUNICATION SKILLS:
TO BE ABLE TO WORK IN A TEAM AND CLEARLY EXPOSE THE CHOICES MADE IN THE MODELING AND THE STRUCTURAL DESIGN

ABILITY TO LEARN:
TO BE ABLE TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED TO CASES EVEN DIFFERENT FROM THOSE DISCUSSED DURING THE COURSE, FOR EXAMPLE BY MAKING USE OF OTHER MATERIALS OTHER THAN THOSE PROPOSED.
Prerequisites
PREREQUISITES: NONE

IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ACHIEVE THE REQUIRED OBJECTIVES, A SOLID BACKGROUND OF CONCEPTS LEARNED IN THE COURSE OF "STRUCTURAL MECHANICS" AND "STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND DESIGN" AT THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE IS NEEDED.
Contents
1. RECALLS AND DEEPENINGS ON THE: "LIMIT STATES METHOD"; CONTINUOUS BEAMS; 2D FRAMES (12 HR)
2. BASICS CONCEPTS OF SEISMOLOGY (3 HR)
3. INTRODUCTION TO DYNAMICS OF: SINGLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS AND MULTI-DEGREES OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS (25 HR)
4. ELEMENTS OF SEISMIC ENGINEERING (25 HR)
5. CURRENT BUILDING CODE (10 HR)
6. PRESTRESSED REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES (15 HR).
7. EXERCISE PROJECTS (30 HR):
- DESIGN OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDING IN SEISMIC AREA (20HR)
- DESIGN OF A POST-TENSIONED RC BRIDGE BEAM (10HR).
Teaching Methods
THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THEORETICAL LESSONS (9 CFU) AND EXERCISES (3 CFU) WILL BE HELD IN THE CLASSROOM DURING THE SCHEDULED TIME FOR THE COURSE.
ATTENDANCE IS NOT MANDATORY, BUT THE REGULAR ATTENDANCE AT THE COURSE IS ENCOURAGED.
THE EXERCISES MAINLY CONSIST IN DEVELOPING TWO PROJECTS: THE FIRST DEALS WITH A FRAMED RC BUILDING TO BE DESIGNED IN SEISMIC AREA; THE SECOND FOCUSES ON A POST-TENSIONED PRESTRESSED RC BEAM.
BOTH PROJECTS WILL BE DISCUSSED DURING THE EXAM AND WILL HAVE TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY GRAPHIC DRAWINGS.
Verification of learning
THE ASSESSMENT OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES WILL BE DONE THROUGH AN ORAL EXAMINATION THAT EACH STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO KEEP STARTING FROM THE END OF THE COURSE.
THE GRADE WILL DEPEND ON THE MATURITY GAINED ON THE COURSE CONTENT, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE QUALITY OF THE ORAL DISCUSSION, THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE POSTULATES AND BASIC LOGIC OF THE DISCIPLINE, THE CAPABILITY OF SOLVING THE MAIN APPLICATION ISSUES AND ACCURACY DEGREE OF THE TWO PROJECTS DEVELOPED DURING THE COURSE.
THE GRADE CUM LAUDE WILL REWARD STUDENTS WHO WILL HAVE FULLY SATISFIED ALL THE ABOVE REQUIREMENTS.
Texts
IN ADDITION TO EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL PREPARED BY THE TEACHER, THE FOLLOWING BOOKS ARE RECOMMENDED:
COSENZA, MANFREDI, PECCE, "STRUTTURE IN CEMENTO ARMATO", HOEPLI PUBLISHER;
FAELLA, "COSTRUZIONI IN CALCESTRUZZO ARMATO NORMALE E PRECOMPRESSO" (VOL. 1A-1B), MAGGIOLI PUBLISHER;
GHERSI, LENZA, "EDIFICI ANTISIMICI IN CEMENTO ARMATO", DARIO FLACCOVIO PUBLISHER;
RAMASCO, "DINAMICA DELLE STRUTTURE", CUEN PUBLISHER;
VIGGIANI, "FONDAZIONI", HEVELIUS PUBLISHER.
More Information
THE COURSE PROVIDES THE STUDENTS WITH THE BASICS OF STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS AND ILLUSTRATES THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC AREA AND OF PRESTRESSED REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS.
THE EXERCISES DEAL WITH THE DEVELOPMENTS OF TWO PROJECTS: A FRAMED RC BUILDING TO BE DESIGNED IN SEISMIC AREA; A POST-TENSIONED CONCRETE BEAM BRIDGE. IN BOTH CASES THE CURRENT ITALIAN CODE (NTC 2018) WILL BE USED.
IN ORDER TO DEVELOP THE TWO PROJECTS, STUDENTS WILL LEARN THE USE OF COMPUTER PROGRAMS FOR THE STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND FOR THE STATIC VERIFICATION.
AFTER PASSING THE FINAL EXAM, THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DESIGN AND VERIFY ISOSTATIC AND STATICALLY INDETERMINATE REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES, ALSO SUBJECTED TO SEISMIC ACTIONS. IN ADDITION, HE WILL BE ABLE TO SIZE PRE-TENSIONED AND POST-TENSIONED RC BEAMS ACCORDING TO THE SEMI-PROBABILISTIC METHOD AT LIMIT STATES.
