Learning outcomes
Knowledge
The student who successfully completes the course will have the ability to: - analyze the behaviour and the main functional, structural and safety issues of plants and systems; - demonstrate a solid and advanced knowledge on the relevant design issues of industrial plants; - interface with/join specialists in different areas; - understand and apply o design and construction techniques, including also the use of FEM and/or system codes generally used to support the design; - to be aware of rules and regulations regarding the safety of the plants and some of components ;
Assessment criteria of knowledge
The student will be assessed on his/her demonstrated ability to discuss the main course contents using the appropriate terminology. During the oral exam the student must be able to demonstrate his/her knowledge of the course material and be able to discuss and develop one or more exercises related to the main topic presented during the course. Students must demonstrate to be able to preliminary design (sizing) systems and components of studied plants and critically discuss the thecnological solution.

Syllabus
The course aims to provide the knoweledge and the methodological basis useful to study the complex industrial plants, intended as system and sub-system strongly connected together, whose correct operation may be relevant not only for the operation of the plant but also for the safety of workers and environment. The It deals with: Criteria and general issues for the design and construction of an industrial complex plant; Siting aspects (environmental-plants interaction and design against the external events); Plants and SSCs structural integrity; Steel and reinforced concrete structures; Engineering practically solutions and numerical methods/tools. Application case will be discussed and analysed by applying numerical codes
