Teaching method

Reinforced Concrete structures II has two lectures classes each week, with 1h30m each, and also two problem-solving sessions, also with a duration of 1h30m. The semester has a duration of 14 weeks.

Evaluation method

The evaluation of knowledge has two components: one done by works and classroom participation of the student during the semester and the other by two tests or final exam.

1. Tests

Written tests  NE = (1stT + 2ndT)/2, grade = 0 to 20 (≥ 7.5).

2. Exam

Written exam NE, grade = 0 to 20 (≥ 7.5).

3. Works and classroom participation

Problem solving sessions Ac(P) and Lectures Ac(T)

Ac(P) = 0 to 20.

Ac(T) = 0% to 100%.

Ac = Ac(P) x Ac(T) ≥ 7.5

4. Final Grade = 0.8 x NE + 0.2 x Ac

Students with a final grade greater than 16 must do an oral exam.
