Aims
The student would manage the goal of the subject by acquiring knowledge on key modern materials, mainly on reinforced concrete, ceramic products, wooden structures etc., by acquiring information on the problems of degradation of these materials by acting of physico-mechanical actors (i.e. mainly by frost disturbance, effects of increased temperature, etc.) and physico-chemical factors (i.e. mainly by different types of chemically aggressive environments).
