Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to acquaint students with basic knowledge about the properties, structure and testing of the most used construction materials. In addition, the student will get acquainted with the types and mechanisms of damage to materials that may occur during their use, in relation to their properties, such as fractures, fatigue, creep, etc. materials.
Students will learn with measurement methodology, statistical calculations determining errors and uncertainties. These students apply knowledge in research and within their undergraduate theses and subsequently doctoral work.
