Course Objective

Historical structures are a part of our cultural heritage. In order to protect the historical structures, their structural behavior has to be known and best strengthening technique should be selected. The aim of this course is to teach the structural analyses of historical structures. Information needed for structural analyses, different analyses techniques, dead load, seismic load, and other loads will be considered in teaching structural analyses. Strengthening techniques will discussed.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   To be able to develop his/her information at the level of specialist in the civil engineering related topics based on the undergraduate qualification levels.
2   To be able to collect, interpret, apply, and evaluate the data.
3   To be able to expose the unpredictable and complex problems faced in practical applications.
4   To be able to use the information, problem solving and / or practical skills in interdisciplinary studies.
5   To be able to solve the problems by using appropriate research methods.
