module, the trainees will be able to describe materials and mechanical properties for

steel and steel sections, calculate direct stress and strain for structural applications,

describe bending moments and shear forces for beams. He or She will have the ability

to exercise some initiative and independence in carrying out defined activities at a

professional level.
