Strength of Materials 2 is a compulsory engineering core subject. The goal of the course is to determine the displacements of statically determinate load-bearing structures and the internal forces of statically indeterminate frame structures and bracing systems based on elastic and plastic design principles. The purpose of the course is to explain the theoretical relationships related to the mechanics of frame structures and to give the basis for the design decisions to be made in the conceptual design phase. The theoretical basis is presented through examples of architectural practice. Another goal is to develop appropriate skills in solving tasks of load-bearing structures.
