Objectives
EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES AND SKILLS
STUDENTS WILL HAVE TO LEARN: THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF DYNAMICS OF LINEAR AND NON-LINEAR SINGLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS AND OF MULTIPLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS; THE BASICS OF THE SEISMIC DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDINGS.
TO DEEPEN THE KNOWLEDGE ON THE “SEMI-PROBABILISTIC LIMIT STATE METHOD" AND, PARTICULARLY, ON ITS APPLICATION IN THE CASE OF REINFORCED CONCRETE, PRESTRESSED AND STEEL STRUCTURES.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
TO KNOW THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE DESIGN OF REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES AND OF STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS IN DYNAMIC FIELD.
LEARN THE VERIFICATION METHODS OF STEEL AND PRESTRESSED MEMBERS AND EXPANDING KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE SEMI-PROBABILISTIC LIMIT STATE METHOD.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
ACQUISITION OF PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE THROUGH THE DESIGN APPLICATION OF THE TOPICS STUDIED IN THE COURSE.
DESIGN OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMED BUILDING IN A SEISMIC AREA ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT ITALIAN BUILDING CODE (UP TO THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL).
DESIGN OF A POST-TENSIONED PRESTRESSED CONCRETE BEAM.

JUDGMENT AUTONOMY
TO BE ABLE TO INDEPENDENTLY JUDGE, WITHOUT ALWAYS AND ONLY RESERVING TO MNEMONIC LEARNING, ENCOURAGING THE SOLUTION OF TECHNICAL-PRACTICAL PROBLEMS PROPOSED DURING THE COURSE.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS
TO BE ABLE TO WORK IN A TEAM AND CLEARLY EXPOSE THE TOPICS RELATED TO THE MENTIONED TYPOLOGIES OF STRUCTURAL MEMBERS AND CONSTRUCTION SYSTEMS.

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

IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ACHIEVE THE REQUIRED OBJECTIVES, A SOLID BACKGROUND OF CONCEPTS LEARNED IN THE COURSES OF "STRUCTURAL MECHANICS" AND "STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND DESIGN" AT THE BACHELOR'S DEGREE IS NEEDED.
Contents
1. RECALLS AND DEEPENINGS ON THE "LIMIT STATES SEMI-PROBABILISTIC DESIGN METHOD" FOR RC MEMBERS (6 HRS)
2. INTRODUCTION TO DYNAMICS OF SINGLE DEGREE OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS AND MULTI-DEGREES OF FREEDOM SYSTEMS (24 HRS)
3. PRESTRESSED REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES (18 HRS).
4. BASICS CONCEPTS OF SEISMOLOGY (2 HRS)
5. ELEMENTS OF SEISMIC ENGINEERING AND CURRENT ITALIAN BUILDING CODE (20 HRS)
6. BASIC PRINCIPLES OF STEEL STRUCTURES (16 HRS)
7. EXERCISE PROJECTS (34 HRS):
- DESIGN OF A STATICALLY DETERMINATE POST-TENSIONED RC BEAM (12 HRS)
- DESIGN OF A REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAMED BUILDING IN SEISMIC AREA (22 HRS)
Teaching Methods
DURING THE SCHEDULED TIME FOR THE COURSE, THEORETICAL LESSONS (ABOUT 85 HRS) AND EXERCISES (35 HRS) WILL BE HELD IN THE CLASSROOM.
ATTENDANCE IS NOT MANDATORY, BUT THE REGULAR ATTENDANCE AT THE COURSE IS ENCOURAGED.

THE EXERCISES MAINLY CONSIST OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF TWO PROJECTS: THE FIRST DEALS WITH A POST-TENSIONED RC BEAM; THE SECOND FOCUSES ON THE SEISMIC DESIGN OF A FRAMED RC BUILDING. IN BOTH CASES THE CURRENT ITALIAN CODE (NTC 2018) WILL BE USED.

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 EXAM MARK 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.
Texts
IN ADDITION TO EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL PREPARED BY THE TEACHER, THE FOLLOWING BOOKS ARE RECOMMENDED:
BALLIO G., MAZZOLANI F.M., "STRUTTURE IN ACCIAIO", HOEPLI EDITOR;
COSENZA E., MANFREDI G., PECCE M.R., "STRUTTURE IN CEMENTO ARMATO", HOEPLI EDITOR;
FAELLA C., "COSTRUZIONI IN CALCESTRUZZO ARMATO NORMALE E PRECOMPRESSO" (VOL. 1A-1B), MAGGIOLI EDITOR;
GHERSI A., LENZA P., "EDIFICI ANTISIMICI IN CEMENTO ARMATO", DARIO FLACCOVIO EDITOR;
RAMASCO R., "DINAMICA DELLE STRUTTURE", CUEN PUBLISHER;
VIGGIANI C., "FONDAZIONI", HEVELIUS EDITOR.
More Information
THE COURSE PROVIDES THE STUDENTS WITH THE BASICS OF STRUCTURAL DYNAMICS AND ILLUSTRATES THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE LIMIT STATE DESIGN OF: REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC AREA; PRESTRESSED REINFORCED CONCRETE BEAMS; STEEL MEMBERS.

THE EXERCISES DEAL WITH THE DEVELOPMENTS OF TWO PROJECTS: A POST-TENSIONED CONCRETE BEAM; A FRAMED RC BUILDING TO BE DESIGNED IN SEISMIC AREA (IN ORDER TO DEVELOP THIS SECOND PROJECT, STUDENTS WILL LEARN THE USE OF A COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR THE STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS).
IN BOTH CASES THE CURRENT ITALIAN CODE (NTC 2018) WILL BE USED.

AFTER PASSING THE FINAL EXAM, THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DESIGN AND VERIFY STATICALLY DETERMINATE AND INDETERMINATE RC STRUCTURES, ALSO SUBJECTED TO SEISMIC ACTIONS. IN ADDITION, HE WILL BE ABLE TO DESIGN PRE-TENSIONED AND POST-TENSIONED RC BEAMS AND STEEL MEMBERS.
