| Course abstract | |
| Course introduces with Eurocode I – content and diversity of actions. The main groups of loads and actions are studied in detail – dead loads, variable loads, climatic actions. Combination of loads in case of multiple loads. Using of partial coefficient method. MS Excel, AutoCAD, MathCAD programmes are used preparing for further work with BIM software. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| Knowledges about assessment methods of loads and actions; skills to determine the loads on different types of buildings; competences to set up, to solve and to analyse research problems according to given design situation. Assessment is given on the basis of defended individual test and competent conversation | |
