Synopsis:

The course aims to introduce diagnostics of civil engineering structures, mechanical, thermal, hygric, chemical and others influences of genesis of failure of civil engineering structures, specificaly on engineering structures (bridges, footbridges, halls etc.). During thecourse students will introduce with behavior of engineering structures, structural and material failures, testing devices for diagnostics and data evaluation.
