Description |
Laboratory practice |
Methodology that allows the realization of activities of practical character, with computer, such as modelization, analysis and simulation of mechanical and structural elements, as well as experimental studies in the workshop of structures, for studying its deformation and resistance |
Supervised projects |
Methodology designed to promote autonomous learning of students, solving a problem that involves the contents of the course and involves specific skills, under teacher supervision. |
Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Oral lecture supplemented with the use of audiovisual means, aiming transmit knowledge and facilitate the learning within the scope of structural analysis |

Qualification
|
Laboratory practice |
A1 A23 B1 B2 B4 B5 B6 B7 B9 C6 C4 |
Students must systematically attend practices. The proposed activities have to be done along the practical sessions, in order to be revised and evaluated by the teacher. The practices that aren’t developed during the practical classes, and periodically revised by the teacher will not be considered in the qualification.
The evaluation process of the laboratory lessons includes a two hour practice session, where the student solves with the computer the problems proposed by the teacher, individually. |

Supervised projects |
A1 A23 B1 B2 B4 B5 B6 B7 B9 C4 C6 |
The projects include the theoretical and practical contents of the course. They are to be done individually. The projects will be developed during the practical sessions along the course and completed at home on the student personal work hours. The tasks will be followed and revised during the practical lessons. If the projects aren’t matured during the practical classes, nor periodically revised by the teacher, will not be considered in the qualification. |

Assessment comments |
<p class="MsoNormal">Students, whose presence throughout the
semester where insufficient to track their work, by academic waiver or other
causes, must also develop and present practices and tutored work for their
evaluation. The follow-up of this work shall be carried out in tutoring
sessions. In this case, the process of evaluation may include in addition to
the presentation of practices and tutored work, a practice session,
individually or in group, in which the student addresses manually or with the
computer the problems raised by the teacher.</p><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><p class="MsoNormal">For the second chance you can present or improve
practices and tutored work. The tracking is done in tutorial sessions. The
assessment is done through presentation of practices and tutored work pending
and/or improved. The process of evaluation may include, in addition to the
presentation of practices and tutored work, a practical session, individually
or in group, in which the student addresses manually or with the computer the
problems posed by the teacher.</p>
