Welcome to the course blog of Fundamentals Physics of Civil Engineering which is a subject of the degree in Civil Engineering. We assume in this course you have taken mathematics and physics before you are starting this course. However, we will not assume that you remember everything you did previously, so do not panic!!!! We will begin with a very brief review of magnitudes, the International System of Units (SI), and vectors. There are two extremely important vectorial magnitudes in your degree, the force and the moment of a force.

We highly recommend to download the course material from the virtual campus. Unfortunately, we did not all the course material in English, but we will try to update it during this semester. All documents are in acrobat format and you can find slides for theoretical classes, exercises both proposed and solved, slides for laboratory sessions, and so on.

The best way to learn physics is solving problems and asking for doubts or understanding physics concepts.

TUTORIAL HOURS:

On Mondays from 10:15 to 12:45 and Wednesdays from 14:15 to 15:45 in my office. Feel free to ask for an appointment by Campus Virtual if the timetable is not suit to you.
