Course Objectives
The purpose of this Masonry Construction Course is aimed primarily at the consolidation of existing and/or historical building structures, is to provide the basis of structural design for static consolidation, seismic improvement and/or geotechnical consolidation of existing structures, with particular reference to masonry structures.
The masonry structures are, in our country, the most widespread and constitutive structural typology of the building fabric of most of the towns and historical centers of the cities.
The main objective of the course is to put the student in a position to proceed with the Design and Control, in compliance with actual Code, the basic elements for securing a masonry building. In this case, considering the great heritage of Masonry Structures in Italy (particularly in earthquake prone zones), a coherent and correct analysis of building practice has a fundamental role.

Course Prerequisites
The knowledge of Structural Engineering, Geotechnics and Dynamics of Structures are considered fundamental as those aspects are presented in previous Courses of the same Master Degree.
Teaching Methods
The teaching activity includes a theoretical part (with lectures and exercises performed by the teacher in the classroom) and one of an applicative nature (with the assignment of simple design themes that will be developed by the student with the supervision of the teacher, according to weekly review cycles).
The Teacher will be at disposal for weekly consulting hours and design revisions; an dedicated scheduling will be defined for special events.

Assessment Methods
The final exam consists in the discussion of the individual works related to the assigned exercises and in an oral or written test, theoretical, on the topics developed during the Course.
The results of any intermediate test will also be considered in the final evaluation, according to the original proposal of each Student.

The main goal of the Course, devoted to Engineering Students of the 2nd year of Master Degree in Construction Engineering, is that to permit to be able to design and model traditional structures: in particular masonry structures. This goal will be reached by means of frontal lections, both theoretical and practical ones, and of an optional complete design of an in situ test campaign on an existing masonry structures.
Particularly an engineering approach to seismic effects on structures will be carried out considering earthquake input on structures, site effect of earthquake motion and design approach on masonry structures; This argument will be the topic of a specific Course in the 1st year of Master Degree in Construction Engineering.

Course Language
The Course will be done in Italian language. Exercises can be assigned in order to be developed in English while didactic materials and Code Provisions can be offered in such language.
More information
During the Course period, in parallel with lessons and optionally by each Student, the design analysis (in terms of both in-situ tests campaign and repairing hypothesis) of an existing building in masonry will be developed.
In this case, it will be also important to make reference to the current Price List for the interventions on masonry buildings in order to improve actual practice according to Code Provisions for Masonry heritage repairing.
Each Student must define such buildings: it is considered as a fundamental goal that each Student can be able to organize a data collection phase and can be able to program a real design approach according to Code provisions.
