Objectives (course unit)

In this course, you will learn the basics of the physics behind construction technology, with topics like mechanics, heat, humidity and sound

After the course you

• know the most common quantities related to building physics, their units and the basic laws between the quantities.
• can describe phenomena related to building physics using quantities and solve a physical problem using equations
• can perform a controlled physical measurement and evaluate the reliability of its result.

Content (course unit)

Quantities and units, Newton's laws, statics, work, energy, power and efficiency, heat, air humidity, surface tension, capillary action, sound, acoustics, lighting.
