Dimensionamento ao fogo

– Knowledge about design of  structural elements at room temperature.

In classes, expository and open discussion methods are used on topics from the perspective of constructive practice. Classes aim to explore individual learning and teamwork skills through discussion of topics among students with theoretical clarifications.

The teaching methodology used allows the student to acquire knowledge through the content transmitted and independent research. The expository process used in classes allows students to be confronted with pertinent questions about the subject, urging them to participate in their analysis and discussion, in order to identify appropriate structural solutions, in the search for understanding the best solutions, and the appropriate methods. of construction. It is also intended to enhance decision-making capacity and the respective advantages and/or disadvantages of the techniques used in structural systems.
