Course detail

Diploma project

ÚSI-2BDDPAcad. year: 2017/2018

Complex solution of theoretical and practical tasks of risk engineering (technical risks of building structures), including a discussion of the role. The solution of theoretical problems (risk assessment, determining the rate of failure, risk catalogue) as well as practical problems (diagnosis of buildings, the draft measures, selection of less risky solution). The project will be studied in the framework of specialization and according to student interest in the following main areas: Concrete structures, metal structures, Reliability of structures (structural mechanics modelling and supporting structures), Diagnostics of structures, earth structures.
