Study Guide

Objectives

After completing the course, students can consider the key physical and chemical factors and related requirements in building design. In addition, students know the effect of structural factors on the energy economy. Students can determine the most common heat insulations according to requirements. They know the key moisture phenomena and can apply them in their work.

Students can use silencing and sound insulation information in their work. Students know the key chemical phenomena related to construction materials and structures and can consider them in selecting materials and making designs.

Content

Basics of sound engineering
Sound insulation and silencing
Basics of construction material chemistry and corrosion phenomena
Structural physics design

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

Student has difficulty grasping the basic ideas of the subject and therefore applying what has been learned to practical work is difficult. In the performance of the tasks, the reasoning is fumbling and there are deficiencies in the previously learned knowledge. The level of documentation of the tasks is modest.

Activity in contact classes and in the performance of tasks is weak.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

Student understands the basic ideas of the subject of the course and knows how to apply what he has learned to practical work, and can explain the reasons and consequences of the choices made in the performance of tasks in a professional manner. The documentation of the tasks is of a standard level.

Activity in contact classes and in the performance of tasks is good. Work progresses consistently during the course.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

Student understands the things taught in the course and previously learned and knows how to apply what he has learned versatilely and creatively to practical work. Student can explain and justify the reasons and consequences of the choices made in the performance of tasks in an expert and professional manner. The documentation of the tasks is of a professional level.

Student has participated actively and constructively in the teaching.
