SECTION II: INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Course Objectives & Content

Course Objectives: This course aims to introduce the general principles of structural materials such as steel and reinforced concrete so that they can analyze and design structural elements. Students are expected to have access to building industry resources and regulations and laws pertaining to design, technical drawing and implementation. This course encourages the student to reflect the knowledge he has built in the series of lectures on building to the field of structural design.
Course Content: It gives information about the design, dimensioning and analysis of reinforced concrete and steel carrier systems.

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs)

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) are those describing the knowledge, skills and competencies that students are expected to achieve upon successful completion of the course. In this context, Course Learning Outcomes defined for this course unit are as follows:
Knowledge (Described as Theoritical and/or Factual Knowledge.)
  1) Knows the basic physical properties of reinforced concrete and steel.
Skills (Describe as Cognitive and/or Practical Skills.)
  1) Relates the principles of reinforced concrete and steel analysis and design to the design and construction of structures.
  2) Expresses the knowledge of reinforced concrete and steel with drawings.
Competences (Described as "Ability of the learner to apply knowledge and skills autonomously with responsibility", "Learning to learn"," Communication and social" and "Field specific" competences.)
