Course content
An engineer must have good knowledge about materials and their potential and limitations. This involves a fundamental knowledge of environmental and material properties of materials and how they are related to the material structure. The course gives a basic introduction to the properties of the five main classes of materials: metals, ceramics, polymers, composites and natural materials with special focus on steel, concrete, wood and plastic materials.
