      1Describe the basic mechanical, physical properties of materials and the concept of stress-strain.
      2Prepare the structural material samples to make experiments according to the standards.
      3Implement test methods to understand the properties of construction materials such as cement, aggregate and concrete.
      4Define the basic properties related with the ingredients of cement, aggregate, fresh and hardened concrete.
      5Design concrete mix.
      Course Description In this course, basic information about the structure and general properties of engineering materials is planned to introduce. Within the scope of the course, information is gained to define material properties such as force, stress, strain, deformation, elastic and plastic behavior, brittleness, toughness, ductility, viscosity, resilience, rheological models, creep, hardness and fatigue. It presents basic information about building materials such as gypsum, cement, concrete and it is planned to make a concrete mix design.
