Learning outcomes
In the course the students will develop a project concerning one of the subject covered in the courses of the 1st year. In particular, the student will develop a project in one of the following fields: structural, hydraulics, road and transportation. The project will be done by the student alone or in small groups, under the supervision of the instructor.
Course contents
Road project:
Learning outcomes
With the achievement of credits, the student has the skills necessary to design a roundabout. It is able to independently design the pavement, the geometry and the road signs.
Program / Content- Introduction to the Case Study
- Road materials
- Calculating ESA traffic
- Use of software for the rational calculation of road pavement
- Stress check on the road pavement
- Geometry of a roundabout
- Calculation of roundabout capacity
- Calculation of visibility distances
- Horizontal road signs
Prerequisites / Recommended pre-requisites
The student who accesses this teachingshould know the main types of road superstructures, in terms of constituent materials realization and control.
Structure project:
Learning outcomes
Design of a reinforced concrete structure in a seismic region
• Definition of loads: design loads, definition of seismic actions, limit state load combinations.
• Developement of a FEM model of the structure.
• Design of the floor slabs: hollow clay blocks slabs and 1-way slabs.
• Design of beams and columns: design for seismic actions, ultimate limit state, and serviceability limit states.
• Design of foundations.
