Class Structure Statics

The curricular unit of Static of Structures is the first course focused on structural engineering of a civil engineer, introducing the fundamental concepts of equilibrium in civil engineering structures. In this way, the curricular unit of Static of Structures introduces the fundamental concepts necessary for the computation and design of civil engineering structures.
