Based on the characterization of the structural systems used throughout history and analyzing the historical evolution of these structural and constructive systems, we will seek to understand the basic functioning of these structural systems and internalize the influence of social and cultural needs throughout history in their evolution. The objective is to understand the way structural systems work and to know the constructive and structural reasons that have defined them and made them useful.

This subject is included in the mention heritage, rehabilitation and custody.



COMPETENCIES



G004 - To understand the structural, constructive and engineering problems associated with construction projects and the existing techniques to solve them.

M07CM02 - Understand the general behavior of constructed buildings in order to intervene with precision.



M07CM03 - Enable the architect to select the most appropriate techniques to be used in each case.

1. Wood and stone buildings throughout history.

2. Diagnosis of structures

3. Characteristics and characterization of wood

4. Study of pathologies

5. Wood: sustainability, impregnability and classification

6. Concrete and steel throughout history

7. Destructive agents of wood

8. Building transformations: analysis techniques

9. Structural calculations

10. Arches and graphic statics

11. Interventions and case studies

La materia combinará clases teóricas con enseñanzas activas. Cada semana se trabajarán diferentes contenidos: clases teóricas, prácticas de modelización y práctica principal. Las clases de teoría tendrán una duración máxima de una hora y estarán acompañadas por esquemas de proyección o pizarra. El material docente utilizado se subirá a la plataforma eGela antes de presentarse en clase. Las diferentes actividades se programarán desde el inicio del curso.



En las prácticas de modelización se investigarán modelos estructurales de elementos y sistemas de construcción sencillos. Las prácticas se devolverán evaluadas al alumnado en un breve plazo de tiempo. Aparte de este feedback, el profesor comentará en clase las carencias observadas en las prácticas (errores, falta de profundidad...). Una vez realizado el feedback, los alumnos podrán entregar una versión mejorada de las prácticas de clase para impulsar la evaluación formativa.



Throughout the course, students will carry out a main practice. This work will be done in groups, using active learning methodologies, in order to promote cooperative work and collective autonomy. This practice will be divided into different phases. Each phase will have a delivery day. These intermediate deliveries will be returned evaluated to the teams in a short period of time. Apart from this feedback, the teacher will comment in class on the shortcomings observed in the work (defects, lack of depth...). Once the feedback has been given, the groups will be able to deliver an improved version of these phases in order to boost the educational evaluation. During the last week of the course, a report with all the phases will be delivered and a synthetic presentation of the work done will be made.

• Continuous Assessment System
• Final Assessment System
• Tools and qualification percentages:
  • Realization of Practical Work (exercises, cases or problems) (%): 20
  • Team projects (problem solving, project design)) (%): 80

1. MODALITY A: CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SYSTEM



1.1. The student, in order to comply with the continuous evaluation, must carry out the main practice and all the class practices. These works must be handed in or presented within the established deadlines.



1.2. The modeling and class practices will be worth 20% of the course. The student must obtain in these works an average grade equal to or higher than 5 points (out of 10 points).



1.3. The main practice will have a value of 80% of the subject. The student must obtain in this work an average grade equal to or higher than 5 points (out of 10 points).



1.4. Students who do not satisfactorily complete the continuous evaluation process, either for not having handed in all the practicals or for having an average grade equal to or lower than 5 points (out of 10 points), will be graded as not passed in the continuous evaluation and will pass to the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM of the extraordinary call.



1.5. The student may waive the CONTINUOUS EVALUATION SYSTEM by himself/herself. This refusal must be made within the first nine weeks of the term, by submitting a written document to the professor. These students will pass to the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM of the ordinary call.



2. MODALITY: FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM



2.1. Students have the right to waive the continuous evaluation. This refusal must be made within the first nine weeks of the term, by submitting a written document to the professor. These students will pass to the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM of the ordinary call.



2.2. The final evaluation system will consist of two parts: an EXAM and an ADDITIONAL WORK. In order to pass the course, the student must pass both parts.



2.3. The ADDITIONAL WORK will cost 80% of the subject. The memory of this additional work will be delivered the day of the exam. If the additional work is not handed in, the student will not be able to take the exam and will pass to the final evaluation system of the EXTRAORDINARY EXAMINATION.



2.4. The EXAM will represent 20% of the subject. The evaluation of this test will be carried out either in person or on-site.



2.5. Failure to take the exam will mean that the student renounces to the exam and will appear as NOT PRESENTED in the ordinary exam.

1. FINAL EVALUATION



1.1. In the extraordinary call, all students will be evaluated with the FINAL EVALUATION SYSTEM, regardless of the modality chosen in the ordinary call.



1.2. Students who have participated without giving up the continuous evaluation will take an exam on the pending content of the exam of the extraordinary call, maintaining the positive results obtained during the course.



1.3. Students not included in the previous point must take a test with 100% of the grade of the subject of the extraordinary call, which will consist of two parts: EXAM and ADDITIONAL WORK. In order to pass the course, the student must pass both parts.



1.4. The ADDITIONAL WORK will cost 80% of the subject. The memory of this additional work will be delivered the day of the exam. If the additional work is not handed in, the student will not be allowed to take the exam.



1.5. The EXAM will account for 20% of the subject. The evaluation of this test will be carried out either in person or on-site.



1.6 In any case, failure to attend the last evaluation of the extraordinary exam will result in the waiver of the same.
