| Overall Educational Objective | To learn to communicate the concepts that coordinate with engineers and other professionals on the process of design, form finding and construction | ||||
| Course Description | The course focuses on the (principles of) structural and architectural design also relationship of architectural practice with engineering disciplines. During the semester, issues related to architectural and structural design will be discussed through examples and problems related to detailing will be examined closely. Building elements such as floors, surfaces, roofs, circulation elements, facades/skins will be studied. Contemporary approaches for construction, new technologies of prefabrication, energy issues, long span and high rise building techniques will also be briefly discussed. | ||||
| Course Description in Turkish | Dönem boyunca mimari ve strüktürel tasarım ile ilgili örnekler üzerinden tartışılan konuların yanında detaylandırma ile ilgili sorunlara yakından bakılmaya çalışılacaktır. Döşemeler, çatılar, sirkülasyon elemanları, cephe/yüzey elemanları konu edilecektir. Çağdaş inşa teknikleri, prefabrikasyon ile ilgili yeni teknolojiler, enerji yaklaşımları, açıklık geçme ve yüksek yapılardan haftalık olarak kısaca bahsedilecektir. |
Course Learning Outcomes and CompetencesUpon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:1) reflect on principles of structural systems, behavior of structures to vertical and horizontal forces, development and applications of contemporary structural systems; 2) understand the importance of structural design and civil engineering on architectural design and able to use the terminology; 3) design through a better understanding of detailing and structure; 4) follow new technologies to help design and construct a structurally logical building. |

| Teaching Methods | The course will have presentations by the instructor as well as extensive discussion by the class. After the 6th week there will be additional time for group or individual in-class activity. This time is booked for discussions and short presentations about case studies and also coordination/ preparation for end term final assignment. Each student has to have their own sketchbook/notebook for the course and it is expected to use this sketchbook/notebook during the term both on and off the course. Sketchbooks will be graded and will be part of the overall grade. | |||||||||||||||
