Class Building and Structural Systems II

Elements of a building - Materials and construction systems. Types of roof (sloping, landscaped, flat - accessible or not accessible). Foundations, walls, floors and roof Understanding and articulating structure, space and form. Main, Secondary Structure and Construction Systems - understanding the components of a project and work, as a set of coherent and interconnected system of disciplines with hierarchy and complementary functions. Acquisition and sedimentation of technical lexicon and construction culture.

Not applicable

Constructive Systems - materials in the construction: Brick; Stone; Concrete; Wood; Plasters, etc. Construction: Scheduling and understanding of the different phases of the work; Humidity, Sun, Temperature in wall and roof systems; Light structure walls. Ventilated walls and ETICs. Dimensions of walls in thickness. Façades: Independent,ventilated and glazing facades  Skins on buildings. Detailing of materials for interiors and exteriors; scales and dimensions of the various details. Structural Systems - Introduction to mechanics: concepts and principles; Particle statics; Rigid bodies: equivalent systems of forces; Equilibrium of rigid bodies (free body diagram, types of supports and connections, equilibrium equations); Truss Analysis (node method and section method)

Constructive Systems - Theoretical and practical aspects lectured with the supervision of the Professor. Theoretical explanation and execution of regular works diversifying the perception of Architecture through drawing with manual representation for the development of creativity, technical knowledge and scale. Comparison of building elements to scale and full size - representation and comparison of the general with the particular. Graphic representation of the parts of a Project and construction elements carried out in two different moments Structural Systems - The teaching methodology is based on theoretical and practical exercises related to real structures, inorder to motivate students and facilitate their understanding of basic structural concepts
