Teaching methods

After some revisions in itinere the students are admitted to a written examination.

Assessment methods

The Lab-based Course on Building and Architecture II is combined by:

Structure Design (8 CFU, 120 hrs)

Theory of Structures (4 CFU, 48 hrs).

The examination of the Lab-based Course on Building and Architecture II includes the verification of learning outcomes of the contents of all the 2 modules/teaching.

The verification of the understanding of the contents of the "Theory of Structures" will be also done through the evaluation of the exercises carried out by the students.

Teaching tools

Some notes will be available electronically via the digital platform.
