Plannedlearning Coursecontent activitiesand Thecourseisconceivedfor12weeks: teachingmethods 1 Single story buildings (nonresidential buildings andindustrial halls): Typologyofsinglestorybuildings Specific loading conditions: climatic actions, technological actionsetc. Details and structural typologies: main frame, secondary structure,claddingandroof,connections Design for resistance and stability (ULS) and serviceability (SLS)criteria.

2Multistorybuildings: Design concepts and structural systems: gravity frames, bracing systems, momentresisting frames, dual frames, steelconcrete composite systems, influence of joint behaviour. Specific loading conditions: permanent, imposed, lateral loads(wind,earthquake)etc. Composite floor systems: composite beams, composite floors,slimfloors. Methodsforglobalanalysis. Design for resistance and stability criteria (ULS). SLS conditionstoverticalandhorizontalloads. Robustness of multistory buildings: impact, explosion, fire, useofhighperformancematerials.

3Largespanstructures: Design concepts and structural systems: reticulated structures for roof systems, truss structures, suspended structures Specific loading conditions: heavy climatic conditions (snow,wind) ULSandSLSconditions:stability,dynamics.

4Platedandshellstructures: Applicationofplatedstructures. Strength and stability of plated structures: behaviour in shear,bending,compression,combinedloads. Applicationofshellstructures. Strengthandstabilityofshellstructures:membranetheory, bendingtheory.

5Lightweightsteelstructures: Applicationoflightweightsteelconstruction.
