Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 120 hours (equivalent to 4 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 75 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
UI-MAT1 Mathematics I
UI-TM1 Engineering Mechanics I

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will:
_ understand the terms stress (normal stress, shear stress) and cross-sectional values.  
_ be able to calculate stress for standard cross-sections and loads reliably.
_ understand the concept of the verification of load-bearing capacity and be able to apply it.
