Overall Educational Objective To learn to understand the structural shell detail and material knowledge for production.
Course Description The course will be carried out by research - discussion - practice. In the first weeks, students will be expected to understand & analyze the structure connection details of a project which is currently made, by working with diagrams, simple combination models / 3D digital models. In the following weeks, they will work on the system details of their studio projects and try to analyze their projects structurally.
Course Description in Turkish Ders saatleri içerisinde araştırma - tartışma - uygulama yapılarak ders yürütülecektir. İlk haftalarda öğrenciler mevcutta yapılan bir projenin strüktür birleşim yapısını kavrayarak diyagramlar, basit birleşim model / maketleri ile anlamaya çalışacak, ilerleyen haftalarda kendi dönem içi projelerinin sistem detayları üzerine çalışmalar yaparak projelerini strüktürel olarak çözümlemeye çalışacaktır.

Students are expected to work both in groups or as individuals throughout the studio. Observation, analysis, research making including criticized case studies are expected to be fulfilled by each student prior to any design proposals. Creative ways of presenting ideas throughout the course, including digital model making, sketching as well as implementing ideas by digital tools will be expected. One-to-one and group discussions will be held during the course. Drawing tools like sketching papers, sketch pencils, coloring materials, pens and laptops with the required programs (Rhino, Sketch up, Autocad) uploaded have to be provided by every student, every course day. 80% attendance are compulsory for a successful outcome.
