Course content
The course is divided into two parts. The first part is focused on the internal structure of basic types of construction materials and on the strengthening and relaxation mechanisms. the course explains the relation between structural and mechanical characteristics of materials. The second part focuses on the nature of degradation processes and limiting states of materials. Understanding of these processes in relation to the different nature of service exploatation allows qualified material selection or the solution of specific operational problems.
