Students will acquire more in-depth knowledge and skills in the area of the determination of the load on a steel tower and the static and dynamic calculation of a tower. They will be acquainted with issues concerning the design of a steel tower with fatigue resistance. They will be able to determine the rotation stiffness and moment bearing capacity of a joint and carry out the numerical analysis of a joint in a steel structure.

Metal structures - design of elements and connections of steel structures. Structural Mechanics, Elasticity and Plasticity.

Extension of knowledge of structural mechanics and numerical mathematics; acquisition of knowledge of issues concerning the modelling of engineering structures.

Teaching methods depend on the type of course unit as specified in the article 7 of BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations.

A precondition for successful completion of the subject is the finishing of tasks begun during practical lessons. Participation in practical classes is compulsory. The subject is concluded by a written examination.
