Statically indeterminate beams.
The teaching methodologies promote learning based on problem solving and projects, reinforcing the practical component, active learning, autonomous work and student accountability. The evaluation model incorporates elements of continuous assessment inthe context of active learning.
Experimental laboratory with reports (20%). 3 mini-tests during classes (30%)
