Study Guide

Objectives

After completing the course, student knows the strength and deformation properties of wood that are taken into account in the design of load-bearing structures. He knows the operation and dimensioning of conventional wooden structures for different forms of stress and knows how to make simple dimensioning of load-bearing structural parts.

Student learns to read and interpret the plans of load-bearing wooden structures. After the course, he will be able to use the information obtained from these in his design work.
