The student will learn the moving load of statically dependent bar structures. The student will also learn the structural analysis of statically indeterminate bar structures by the stiffness method, namely plane frames, planar bar systems, continuous girders, statically indeterminate trusses, influence of the temperature changes and shifts of the supports. The student will learn the basic tasks with the programme system RFEM–SCIA.

Structural analysis of axial forces in statically determinate trusses, simple built-in beams, plane frames. Explanation the principle of virtual work and theorem of reciprocity of virtual work. The enumeration of the translations and rotations of the straight and broken girders by the method of unit forces. The solution of planar bar systems by the force method.

Applications of the integral. Solutions of linear differential equations.

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Methods of teaching are lectures and exercises. Individual consultations complement teaching. Study activities of students includes entering his own independent work. Attendance at lectures is recommended. Participation in other classes is required and controlled.

The subject is finished by abridged examination or final examination. For abridged exam the student should pass all written tests in exercises. The final examination consists of written and oral parts. The written examination may contain both examples and the theoretical questions. The positive result in written examination allows the student to pass to oral part.
