Learning outcomes |
--The aim of the course unit is to acquire theoretical and practical knowledge of statics useful to engineering, including problem solving and the use of computational tools. --At the end of the Curricular Unit, the student should be able to analyze, understand and mathematically describe some elementary problems in statics. Consequently, the student will be able to apply the basic principles of statics in the description and discussion of different structures and machines.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
The two tests are scheduled on dates chosen by the students. Two tests will be carried out throughout the course in order to ascertain, by students and teachers, the degree of mastery of the subjects transmitted, as well as their creative use. From these tests that will be considered for evaluation, the student will be able to gather information about the degree of mastery of the subject, as well as the mistakes made.
