Objectives
GENERAL OBJECTIVE
THE COURSE AIMS TO PROVIDE SKILLS ON:
- STRUCTURAL MATERIALS;
- ACTIONS ON STRUCTURES;
- THE 'SEMI-PROBABILISTIC LIMIT STATE METHOD';
- THE BASICS OF 'STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS AND DESIGN' OF SIMPLE REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES (STATICALLY DETERMINATE AND INDETERMINATE BEAMS, FRAMES, AND TRUSS GIRDERS) UNDER STATIC LOADS;
- THE BASICS OF SEISMIC DESIGN (PART OF THE COURSE WILL COVER THE FOLLOWING TOPICS: EARTHQUAKES AND SEISMIC RISK; DEFINITION OF SEISMIC ACTION ACCORDING TO CURRENT REGULATIONS; BEHAVIOR FACTOR; CAPACITY DESIGN AND LOCAL DUCTILITY; LINEAR STATIC ANALYSIS);
- CALCULATION OF STRESSES IN RIGID AND ELASTIC FOUNDATION BEAMS ON ELASTIC SOIL.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
AT THE END OF THE COURSE, THE STUDENT WILL:
- HAVE ASSIMILATED THE IMPARTED NOTIONS AND BE ABLE TO APPLY THEM TO SOLVE CERTAIN TECHNICAL PROBLEMS;
- HAVE BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE CURRENT TECHNICAL REGULATIONS ON CONSTRUCTIONS (NTC 2018);
- BE ABLE TO DESIGN AND VERIFY STRUCTURES OF MODEST SIZE AND COMPLEXITY, BOTH AT THE SERVICEABILITY LIMIT STATE (IN THE LINEAR ELASTIC RANGE) AND AT THE ULTIMATE LIMIT STATE (IN THE NONLINEAR RANGE);
- KNOW THE BASIC ELEMENTS OF SEISMIC ENGINEERING.

ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DESIGN:
- A CONCRETE FLOORING SYSTEM (UP TO THE EXECUTIVE LEVEL);
- A 2D REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAME, EVEN IN PRESENCE OF SEISMIC ACTIONS.

JUDGMENT AUTONOMY
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO:
- DEVELOP CRITICAL REASONING IN SOLVING THE TECHNICAL PROBLEMS PROPOSED DURING THE COURSE;
- EXAMINE PROJECTS OF REINFORCED CONCRETE BUILDINGS CARRIED OUT BY ENGINEERS;
- PROVIDE GUIDELINES FOR THE PROPER EXECUTION OF PROJECTS SIMILAR TO THOSE ADDRESSED DURING THE COURSE.

COMMUNICATION SKILLS
THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO:
- WORK IN TEAM;
- DESIGN REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES, PROPERLY PREPARING A CALCULATION REPORT AND EXECUTIVE DRAWINGS OF THE WORK TO BE CARRIED OUT.

ABILITY TO LEARN
TO BE ABLE TO APPLY THE KNOWLEDGE ACQUIRED TO CASES EVEN DIFFERENT FROM THOSE DISCUSSED DURING THE COURSE, AND TO DEEPEN THE COVERED TOPICS BY USING OTHER MATERIALS OTHER THAN THOSE PROPOSED.
Prerequisites
PROPAEDEUTICS: STRUCTURAL MECHANICS
IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY ACHIEVE THE REQUIRED OBJECTIVES, A GOOD BACKGROUND OF CONCEPTS LEARNED IN THE COURSE OF "STRUCTURAL MECHANICS" IS NEEDED.

Teaching Methods
THROUGHOUT THE YEAR, THEORETICAL LESSONS (ABOUT 90 HRS) AND EXERCISES (ABOUT 30 HRS) WILL BE HELD IN THE CLASSROOM DURING THE SCHEDULED TIME FOR THE COURSE.
ATTENDANCE IS MANDATORY AND, EVEN THOUGH THE REGULATIONS OF THE DEGREE PROGRAM ALLOW THE POSSIBILITY OF BEING ABSENT FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF HOURS (30%), THE REGULAR ATTENDANCE AT THE COURSE IS ENCOURAGED.
THE EXERCISES CONSIST MAINLY IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF TWO PROJECTS: THE FIRST DEALS WITH A RC SLAB; THE SECOND FOCUSES ON A FRAMED RC BUILDING TO BE DESIGNED UNDER GRAVITY LOADS AND HORIZONTAL ACTIONS (SEISMIC FORCES).
Verification of learning
THE VERIFICATION OF THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES WILL BE DONE THROUGH AN ORAL EXAM OF ABOUT 1 HOUR 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 AND WILL TAKE 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;
THE ACCURACY DEGREE OF THE TWO PROJECTS DEVELOPED DURING THE COURSE.

IN ORDER TO SUCCESSFULLY PASS THE EXAM (MINIMUM GRADE) THE STUDENT WILL HAVE TO DEMONSTRATE THE CAPABILITY OF PERFORMING THE DESIGN AND THE VERIFICATION OF REINFORCED CONCRETE CONTINUOUS BEAMS AND FRAMES ACCORDING TO THE "LIMIT-STATE SEMI-PROBABILISTIC METHOD" (BY FOLLOWING THE CURRENT CODE PROVISIONS).
FURTHERMORE, HE WILL HAVE TO DEMONSTRATE A SUFFICIENT KNOWLEDGE OF: THE METHODS OF ANALYSIS OF 2D FRAMES; THE BASICS OF THE DESIGN OF RC FRAMED BUILDINGS IN SEISMIC ZONE; THE CALCULATION OF THE STRESSES OF ELASTIC OR RIGID FOUNDATION BEAMS ON THE WINKLER SOIL.

THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE THE MAXIMUM GRADE AT THE END OF A BRILLIANT ORAL PRESENTATION, DURING WHICH HE WILL HAVE DEMONSTRATED TO HAVE A VERY GOOD KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THE COVERED TOPICS.

EXCELLENCE WILL BE ATTRIBUTED ONLY WHEN THE STUDENT WILL DEMONSTRATE TO HAVE AN EXCELLENT PREPARATION ON ALL THE TOPICS OF THE COURSE.

THE EXAM GRADE WILL ALSO DEPEND ON THE WAY IN WHICH THE STUDENT WILL BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THE TWO PROJECTS CARRIED OUT DURING THE COURSE.
