Course description

Knowledge of the chemical and physical properties of building materials. Basic knowledge of the structure of the material that allow the interpretation of the chemical, physical and mechanical properties of the materials from atomic interactions, as well as the establishment of relationships between their microscopic structure and their macroscopic properties. Structure, type and basic properties of the most common construction materials, as well as the degradation processes that these may suffer. Experimental techniques for determining the composition and structure of building materials.
