Description |
| Introductory activities |
Based on the contents of the teaching guide and the presentation of the subject, the student reviews his previous knowledge and recovers the previous teaching material related to the subject. |
| Guest lecture / keynote speech |
Set of classes and conferences in which the expository work of the rapporteur (teacher and / or lecturer) is essential, work that is carried out with the support of the T.I.C. They consist of the development of the various topics on the agenda. The student must get used to handling the recommended bibliography of the subject, which can be found in the ETSA library (and partially also on the internet) with the support of the outlines of the classes available in the virtual faculty, as well as in reprography.
The continuous monitoring of the theoretical classes is a requirement of the subject that is considered fulfilled with the attendance at least 80% of the classes that are developed in person. |
| Problem solving |
The student will solve exercises oriented towards future professional practice under the tutelage of the teacher.
We will insist on presenting the result in a way that is clearly visible, indicating the numerical value with the corresponding precision and units.
The most common mistakes that are usually made will be explained, evaluating them according to their severity, both conceptual and numerical.
Later, similar exercises will be proposed for their development by the students.
The delivery of 80% of the properly resolved practices proposed is required. |
| Case study |
The student is confronted with a specific real case, with an important structural content, which describes a real situation in professional life.
The student must be able to analyze a series of facts, referring to the intervention on foundation structures to reach a reasoned decision through a process of discussion and critical reasoning, propose an action and confront it with the one carried out in reality. |
| Workbook |
Acquisition of a general conceptual framework by reading texts about soil mechanics and foundations, as well as deepening on the various topics of the program and others that may be specifically interesting, due to the particular conditions of the work to be carried out. |
| Objective test |
The student must pass two eminently practical tests that may include theoretical content on the different aspects of the subject presented in class. |
| Supervised projects |
Throughout the course, the student will have to carry out work that involves the design of the structures and foundations of a building, as well as the dimensioning and elaboration of the appropriate plans of the foundations made at a professional level.
This work is part of the development of an architectural project, progressively incorporating the different themes that are developed in theory. Those students who are not linked to the workshop will design a concrete porticoed building in the first three weeks of the course and will progressively develop all the aspects that will allow the design and calculation of the foundation, which will be organized in partial deliveries that will be recast in a final delivery. Monitoring is required throughout the course and its delivery on the date specified for it, not admitting delivery at the second opportunity. |
| Workshop |
The student must project the structure and foundation of the projected building in a workshop regime, size the foundation and represent it adequately at a professional level. Starting with the building designed in the workshop, the methodology set forth in supervised work will be followed.
The workshop, in accordance with the provisions of the current Curriculum, is subject to a process of continuous evaluation since it is also an interdisciplinary task. The revisions and deliveries that are made throughout the course are those that allow to guarantee the authorship of the work and to contrast its evolution. For this reason, follow-up is required throughout the course and its delivery on the date specified for it, not admitting its delivery at the second opportunity. |
| Events academic / information |
Activities carried out by the student that involve attendance and participation in scientific and informative events (congresses, conferences, symposia, courses, seminars, conferences, exhibitions, visits to works, etc.) with the aim of deepening the knowledge of topics related to The matter.
These activities provide the student with current knowledge and experiences that incorporate the latest developments in the field of study. |
