Lecture 00

23. August 2021, 10.15 R10

In this first lecture of TKT4196 - Aspects of Structural Safety, a general overview of the course is given. After going through the practical and organisational aspects related to the course imple- mentation, we will have a brief discussion on the role of safety aspects in structural engineering and in civil engineering in general. This lecture is meant to be a soft and “not too technical” start to the course and to the topic.

Prepare:

If you have time, read the Chapter 00 that you find on Blackboard.

Good to know:

The lecture room is R10 and at least for me it was a challange to find it. It is in Realfagbygget on the 5th floor. Use the elevator next to the library main entrance.

Recording:

I will make an attempt to record the lecture. But better appear physically, when possible.

Practical 00

23. August 2021, 12.15 Landmålerhallen

Here we will get our computers ready to operate Python. I will also give you an introduction to some basics in scripting Python.

Prepare:

If you have time, you might follow this guide and try to make your computer ready.
You could also have a look to the Jupyter Notebook that contains some introduction.

Good to know:

The lecture room is “Landmålerhallen”. It is in the IBM building, floor s, entrance north-west corner.

Recording:

I will make an attempt - but this session will be kind of interactive, so recordings might be of limited use.
