Conoscenze e abilità da conseguire

The course is designed to instruct the students to recognize rock-forming minerals and rock textures in order to classify specimens and outcrops understanding their physico-chemical behaviour. At the end of the course the students will be also able to read and understand thematic maps and documents needed for the design of buildings on the basis of general concepts of stratigraphy and structural geology. Finally, the students will be introduced to geological hazards and risks with particular regard to volcanic, seismic, landslide and flood risk, in the frame of environmental impact assessment (E.I.A.).

Contenuti

a) Lithology in function of the recognition of minerals and rocks, through genetic processes;
b) Geothematic cartography in function of the elaboration and reading of the geological documents preparatory to the building design through the general information on Stratigraphic Geology and Structural Geology;
c) Geological risks s.l. with particular regard to the volcanic risk, the seismic risk, the landslide risk and the flood risk, according to the study and assessment of the environmental impact (V.I.A.)
d) underground water.
