Course description
In building technology, there are many theoretical formulas, generalized theoretical formulas, empirical formulas, methods, and judgment standards that systemize and accumulate the experience of the priorities, and we believe that this technology can be safely and surely applied. However, these theoretical formulas, empirical formulas, etc. contain a lot of hypotheses, truncations and limitations of factors, it is not appropriate to blindly apply it by believing it.
It is extremely useful to experience and observe various phenomena through experiments to confirm the usefulness and limitations of these. Experiment of loading tests of reinforced concrete members and steel members and model vibration tests are carried out.
Think about the purpose of the experiment and master the basic knowledge to judge the experiment result. Learn how to handle mechanical instruments for measurement. Gain the ability to summarize experiments as reports.
Purpose of class
(1)You will be able to understand the characteristics of the structural material.
(2)You will be able to understand the principle of experiment, operation and measurement method.
(3)You will be able to understand how to use materials and construction method in building structure.
(4)You will be able to master data analysis, writing reports, and presentation method.
Goals and objectives

Goals and objectives Course Outcomes
1. By comparing lecture subjects on materials and structure with this experiment subject, comparing theoretical and actual phenomena, we have the opportunity to think about the meaning of experiencing the complexity of phenomena and experimenting.
3.
