21010037 - STRUCTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 2M

Setting up and developing the project of the structures, starting from the needs and objectives of the project, up to evaluating the alternatives in terms of impact and sustainability: aesthetic, functional, economic and safety. Insights into the behavior and verification of structural elements and structures as a whole, including foundations, with reference to the actions, including seismic action, and the required performance also with reference to current legislation. Interaction of structural design with other design aspects, as the design should involve all aspects. Qualitative and quantitative evaluation from the conception to the development of the project and to the realization of the work.
