Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences
Illustrate the achieved theoretical knowledge in physics with its practical applications, especially in civil engineering. Make the students acquainted with the operation of basic experimental apparatuses. Enable to measure selected physical quantities, compute dependent quantities and apply the simple statistical methods of measurement processing and evaluation.
Critically compare computed results with the tabulated ones or results determined by other methods.

Summary
Předmět navazuje na předmět Fyzika. Účelem je upevnit a doplnit znalosti základů fyziky v aplikační oblasti. Hlavním cílem je získat teoretické základy měření a praktické návyky pro fyzikální a technická měření. Soubor měřených úloh je volen tak, aby zahrnoval měření základních fyzikálních veličin z mechaniky, termodynamiky, elektřiny, magnetismu, optiky a jaderné fyziky s potenciálními aplikacemi ve stavební praxi.
