Constructions of Building (5cr)

Objectives

Students learn to know structural systems of brocks of flats and business and office buildings, structural solutions used in their exterior walls and intermediate floors as well as shelters. Buildings can be prefabricated and/or built in situ. After completing the course, students know the principles of structural systems, and their applicability to different building types and implementation methods. Students know the most typical concrete, wood and/or steel structure types and connections and can use them in architectural design. The course is closely connected to other second-year projects.
