THE COURSE FURNISHES THE NECESSARY KNOWLEDGES TO PERFORM, IN FULL AWARENESS, THE STRUCTURAL CALCULATION IN THE LINEAR ELASTIC FIELD. ON THE BASE OF THE MATHEMATICAL MODEL OF THE ELASTIC EQUILIBRIUM PROBLEM AND OF THE ELEMENTS OF STATICS GIVEN IN THE FIRST PART OF THE COURSE, THEY ARE FOCALIZED, FOR STATIC AND/OR THERMAL LOADS, OPERATIONAL TOOLS FOR THE DIMENSIONING OR THE VERIFICATION OF PLANE ONE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURES, HOWEVER COMPLEX
