| Course contents : |
- Brief introduction to static forces (graphical approach), resistance and behaviour of materials.
- Presentation of the functioning of standard structural elements.

| Course objective : |
- Thanks to an approach as direct and intuitive as possible, students get the tools so as to understand and grasp the impact of the structural system on the architecture of a building.
- The students acquire further technical and scientific device ton confirm the intuitive approach.
- The students are enabled to design their future projects taking into account the structural requirements as early as possible in the design process.
