| Course abstract | |
| The aim of the study course is to acquire basic knowledge about the strength of materials and methods of its determination, as well as about the methods of calculation of the basic elements of structures. In this part of the course the factors of internal forces and construction of their diagrams, combined stress state, strength theories, strength calculations in basic loads of structures, tensile, compressive, shear, torsion, bending are mastered. | |

| Requirements for awarding credit points | |
| The course ends with a test. In order to pass the test, independent work and laboratory works must be defended and tests must be written. | |
| Description of the organization and tasks of students’ independent work | |
| During the independent work students study in depth the topics discussed in the lectures and perform independent work:
1. Independent work: Calculate the geometrical characteristics of the section area for a composite beam. 2. Independent work: Calculate the internal force diagrams of a curved beam. 3. Independent work: Calculate the flat frame internal force diagrams. 4. Independent work: Perform a torsional strength calculation. 5. Independent work: Calculate the bending strength of the beam. |
