Metallic Structures
The department performs analytical and experimental studies on metallic structures, and particularly on steel structures, developing innovative research on:
- Steel and Architecture
- High strenght and stainless steel
- Steel and Glass
- Connection
- Tall buildings
- Industrial buildings
- Fabrication and erection
- Shells
- Codification
- Plates
- Bridges
- Refurbishment
- Robustness
- Sustainability
- Stability
- Cold-formed structures
- Seismic-resistant structures
- Aluminum structures
The research is performed in synergy with other national and international universities and research centers in the framework of research projects that are specific for the research field (Reluis 2014-2018, Equaljoints, Freedam) and that allow the application of the research results for the sustainability and protection of the built environment (Elissa).
