Objectives (course unit)

Student knows how to calculate the usual loads on buildings according to the Eurocode.

Students learn to understand the fundamentals of statistics. They can draw the free-body diagrams of a particle and a rigid body and with them calculate the normal force using the balance equation. They understand what different forces mean and are able to define the stress diagram of a straight, simple beam.

Content (course unit)

Loads on buildings.

The basic concepts of statics: basic laws of mechanics and force vectors. Resultant and components affecting a particle and its balance. Reducing the force system of a rigid body, load, support, structure model, balance, support reactions and strain.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2) (course unit)

Student knows how to use the basics included in the course and solve simple applications that are similar to the tasks covered.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4) (course unit)

In addition to the previous one, student can apply the subjects of the course to different situations and can justify the solutions.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5) (course unit)

In addition to the previous one, student has a comprehensive understanding of the subjects of the course and their use in solving problems, as well as the ability to present and justify the logically chosen solution methods.
