Seat Ingegneria
A.A. 2015/2016
Credits 9
Hours 90
Period 2s
Language ENG

Prerequisites
Knowledge of Structural Analysis are considered acquired

Learning outcomes
The course deals with the problem of structural design of reinforced concrete buildings in seismic areas. The main issues relate to the size of the structural elements, modeling, analysis, also by means of finite element solvers, and the verification of safety limit states. The tutorial consists of the preparation of drawings and calculation report of a building with bearing reinforced concrete skeleton.

Program
- Steel-concrete composite beams: types and construction methods, structural analysis, sectional analysisl, verification at the SLE and ULS, design and verification of connection and verification of the reinforcement in the concrete slab. - Structural

Development of the examination
LEARNING EVALUATION METHODS
The evalulation of student learning is based on two assessments: - the development of a seismic resistant design, and the relevant executive drawings, of a reinforced concrete building; - an oral exam consisting in a discussion of the design project and in some theoretical questions on the topics covered during the course; students may be requested to answer some questions in writing and the answers will be successively discussed. To access the oral exam the student is required to have completed the project.

LEARNING EVALUATION CRITERIA
Through the design project and the oral exam the student must demonstrate to have learned the topics covered during the course, such as analysis and design methods of seismic resistant structures.

LEARNING MEASUREMENT CRITERIA
The evaluation of both the assessment is expressed in thirtieths.

FINAL MARK ALLOCATION CRITERIA
The student is expected to pass both assessments. The final mark of the course will be calculated after the oral exam as the average of the marks received for these two assessments. The 'lode' will be awarded to students who, having correctly completed the two assessments, show an outstanding understanding in the subject.
