Introduction to the theorico-practical classes of Strength of Materials 1

Abstract

The syllabus for the Civil Engineering Bachelor degree at FEUP includes 2.5 hours of theoretical lectures and 3 hours of theorico-practical lessons, per week, of Strength of Materials 1. The working method recommended for the theorico-practical classes is centered on the resolution, by the students, of practical problems grouped in Worksheets. This document is used for a quick contextualization of the subjects covered in each theorico-practical lesson, so that the student can read the pages corresponding to each topic before the respective lesson. It does not replace in any way the systematic presentation of each topic and the underlying theory, made in the theoretical lecture classes.
