This teaching activity contributes to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda.
Academic Year 2021/2022
Learning outcomes
During the course the student will learn to apply the models acquired during the Transport Systems Engineering class, with regard to individual road transport networks. By obtaining these credits, the student will also learn the tests for the geometric and mechanical characterization of basic materials, the fundamentals of "mix design" of bituminous conglomerates and the tests for the characterization of the dynamic stiffness module.
