Objective | Introduction into the basic and practical knowledge of important building materials and testing methods. | |||||
Content | o Introduction of material testing equipment, with various examples of experiments on metals (tensile behaviour, hardness, bending and impact loading). o Theoretical background and practical aspects of concrete technology: mixture design, casting and setting; determination of mechanical properties. o Properties of bricks and mortar: individual materials and the composite brickwork. Parameters like strength, Young’s modulus, water absorption and thermal conductivity are determined. o Understanding the characteristic properties of wood: anisotropy, hygroscopic behaviour, shrinkage and swelling, and effect of size on strength. Introduction to test-methods for wood and wood-products. o Introduction into the basics of scanning electron microscopy: practical exercises with the Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM). o Introduction to fundamentals of Finite Element Methods and their application in examples. o Introduction to durability of building materials and building structures: assessment of potentials for detecting and locating corrosion of steel reinforcement in concrete. | |||||

101-0185-01L | CAD for Civil Engineers For students of 5th semester. Number of participants is limited to 30. Point in time of enrolment of course is decisive. | W | 2 credits | 2G | T. Vogel, K.‑H. Hamel | |
Abstract | Introduction to computer aided design and drafting in 2D and 3D with examples from structural engineering | |||||
Objective | Having followed the course, students are able to a develop a 2D-structure (formwork drawing) and they know the principle of a reinforcement module. They have also got an introduction to a 3D program (reinforcement in 3D). They are therefore better prepared for - the bachelor thesis in the 6th semester, - an eventual internship between bachelor and master course, - the project works in the master course, - the master thesis. Above all they practice spatial sense and acquire contextual knowledge as future superiors of draftsmen and designers. | |||||
