221-0401 – Metal and composite structures (KSK)

Within the framework of the subject “Metal and composite structures”, students will be acquainted with advanced approaches to design, reliability assessment and realization of metal and composite structures of traffic, building and industrial constructions. Students have to obtain and demonstrate a sufficient general overview about the metal and composite structures. Students will also receive an individual project in relation to the theme of the dissertation.
