Course Objectives
(1) To deepen the understanding of architectural structure mechanics, reinforced concrete structure, steel structure, foundations of seismic engineering and earthquake engineering, building production (temporary construction, earthwork, framework) through the solution of exercises.
(2) To execute a structural calculation and structural drawings of small-scale buildings, using the knowledge acquired at the 4th year courses of reinforced concrete structures and steel structures.

Assigned Department Objectives
Teaching Method
Outline:
During the first seven weeks, the students will practice building structural mechanics (including plastic mechanics), RC / S construction, structural planning/loading, seismic design, and construction production. In the last seven weeks, the students will choose between a reinforced concrete structure or a steel frame structure, and in groups work in the design of a three-story office building, using commercially available structural software. The instructor worked as a designer at an architectural structure company and has experience on structural design of small-scale buildings.
Style:
The course is conducted on the execution of exercises, with lectures as appropriate. In the first weeks, the students will execute assignments to prepare for the structural design assignment. From the 9th week, the students will work in groups and execute the structural calculation and the structural drawings of small-scale buildings. This course requires self-study, and that will be reported later.
Notice:
This course requires 90 hours of self-study time to do preliminary reviews, reviews, and assignments. To review the content learned at the 4th year courses of reinforced concrete structures and steel structures, and the 5th year Special Problems in Structural Theory and Design A. To work in a group with an independent and cooperative attitude. Students attendance is required, and only a maximum of 5 absences is excused.
