Educational goal:

Acquiring advanced academic and professional knowledge in the field of the design and detailing of masonry structures according to limit states and enabling students to design and detail masonry sections and members in building structures of various purposes.

Educational outcome:

Students possess advanced academic and professional knowledge in the field of the design and detailing of masonry structures according to limit states. They are able to solve problems of different levels of complexity on their own, as well as in communication and interaction with others. They are entrepreneurial and can lead projects of different complexity by respecting the ethical standards of their profession. They have a positive attitude towards lifelong learning and personal and professional development.

Course content:

Masonry materials and their mechanical properties. Mechanical properties of the wall. Types of masonry members and structures. Basic principles of design of masonry structures. Analysis of masonry members and structures: imperfections, second order effects, vertical, concentrated, shear and lateral loading of walls. Basics of design of masonry structures according to limit states. Ultimate and serviceability limit states of unreinforced, reinforced and prestressed walls and confined walls. Simplified methods of analysis. Structural detailing of masonry structures. Inter-storey slabs and lintels. Basement masonry walls. Masonry infilled concrete frames. Retrofitting and strengthening of masonry structures.

Teaching methods:

Lectures, practical classes, consultations. The theoretical part of the study material is presented at lectures through presentations of individual thematic units, followed by the appropriate examples from engineering practice for the sake of easier perceiving and understanding. At practical classes, the study material is processed through the solving of practical problems with the active participation of students. In addition to lectures and exercises, consultations are held regularly in order to provide students with answers to additional questions related to the study material.
