Learning Objectives
Knowledge:
Notions on the mechanical characteristics of wood and wood products for structural use, on the regulatory system for the use of structural wood, on the problems of assessment of wooden structures in site.
Acquired expertises:
Skills in the field of use of wooden materials with load-bearing capacity, in the interaction with designers for project realizations, in the use of tools for mechanical tests and for non-destructive tests.
Skills acquired at the end of the course:
Ability to set up a process for the certification of wood and derived products for use in load-bearing structures, to evaluate wooden load-bearing structures in place, to select the structural material in building sites.
