COURSE PROGRAM FOR TECHNICAL DRAWING
The course aims to expand the communication and design skills of civil engineering students, integrating those acquired in the early years of study. This is achieved through the attainment of two main objectives. The first is to provide a solid foundation in technical communication of products, so that students can design using common technical drawing practices. The exercises guide students in acquiring a good technical and representational understanding of design, with tables that gradually cover the various topics addressed in the lessons. The second objective, which derives from the first, is to provide students with the necessary skills to produce graphic materials in the field of civil works design of various types. In addition, the course is useful for learning two drawing and representation software (Autodesk AutoCAD® and QGIS), which are of fundamental importance for the design exams of the third year of the degree course.

EXPECTED LEARNING OUTCOMES
It is expected that students who have successfully completed the Technical Drawing course will have acquired the following skills:
- Knowledge of the main technical drawing codes;
- Reading of technical cartography;
- Familiarity with graphic materials to scale;
- Dimensioning and graphical symbols used in civil engineering;
- Orthogonal projections;
- Basic AutoCAD package: model space and paper space;
- Basic QGIS package: model space and layout.

The course consists in 21 on line video lectures and will provide students with AutoCAD two-dimensional drawing fundamentals, Civil 3D and Excel applications. Major topics include the AutoCAD/Excel/Civil3D/Matlab operating system, menu structure and commands, accurate drawing setup techniques, geometry creation, manipulation and alteration editing functions, display, printing and plotting techniques. Specific application are dedicated to civil engineering drawings and design applications.

Students will be introduce also to the fundamentals of another software such as Matlab, and its application to civil enginnering issues and questions.

None except for the manual of Autocad and Excel. Lessons will be uploaded on Moodle and Teams.

The course program includes the presentation and discussion of the following topics:
Introduction to Geology: the uniqueness of planet Earth; aspects of geology, the Earth's crust - the processes affecting the surface (the model of the Earth's relief, the sedimentary processes, sedimentary rocks), the body of the Earth - the internal process (the interior of the Earth, the earthquakes, volcanic phenomena, igneous rocks, metamorphic rocks; lithogenetic cycle, plate tectonics) deformation of the crust (lithological succession, the deformation of rocks, the geometry of geological bodies ). The "craft" of the geologist: the geological survey (preliminary research, materials and methods, analysis and interpretation of geological maps, reading and interpretation of thematic maps), the geological-technical survey (principal physical and mechanical properties of earth and rocks, the geological exploration of subsoil). Engineering Geology: Slope instabilities; hydrogeology; study of the geological context related to planning issues (the geological hazard); first intervention on the territory; redevelopment (urban geology.)
