| Educational objectives | Acquire the ability to carry out tests on existing structures and to evaluate the obtained results. |
| Prerequisites | Knowledge of materials and structural mechanics. |
| Teaching methods | Face to face training |
| Other information | Basic knowledge on structural dynamics, even if they are not mandatory, ma easier the study of the subject. |
| Learning verification modality | The exam is composed of an oral eamination. It consists of a discussion around 30 minutes long aimed at verifying the level of knowledge of the theoretical- methodological contents of the course with special reference to the design of experimental tests on structures and to the interpretation of the obtained results. |
| Extended program | Fundamentals of measurement, dimensional analysis, error theory, metrologic characteristics of measuring instruments, random errors, dynamic behaviour of instruments, instruments for measuring displacements , velocity and acceleration. Tests on scale models. |
