Prerequisites
Basic Knowledge of building systems and building components

Learning outcomes
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
In this course the basic knowledge about UE basic requirements for Construction Works will be provided. The fundamentals of Performance Based Building Design (PBBD), basics and detailed analysis in multi-disciplinary projects will be performed. The difference between top-down and bottom-up design will be clarified. In the Workshop, students will look into building construction techniques and their relationship with the architectural constraints and viewpoint.
CAPACITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
This course provide students with the ability to set up any complex design process. In order to do that, the basic building actions assessment and design aims (Mechanical resistance and stability, Safety in case of fire, Safety and accessibility in use a.s.o.) will be considered. Every design choice must be justified by regulation or technical reasons. In the Workshop module, students will acquire knowledge about technical drawings and building specifications.
TRANSVERSAL SKILLS:
Students will be able to assess performance level assessment as connected with Design targets. They will acquire the technical knowledge needed to convey in the correct language technical choices. They will develop team co-working and self-sufficiency abilities in sources search (e.g. ISO, EN specifications).

Program
Basics of Performance Based Building Design (PBBD). UE-Requirements satisfaction in Building Design. Performances in Buildings and their technologies Safety in Building Contructions: Loadbearing Capacity; Fire Safety and Safety in Use. Customer planning documents (contents, techniques a.s.o.) are discussed. Building requirements and features are analysed (three levels foreseen by the standards) Management of the building design. In-depth analysis of the contents and methods expected in the different design steps Knowledge of the EN and ISO standards (building materials, building elements, design methods).
