- Learning outcomes:
- The scientific knowledge needed for the optimum design of the building is a combination of structural elements with the complexity of the physical and the economical factors. This course teaches the integration of wood and steel structures to achieve a functional product. Furthermore, the technological, organizational and economical factors are continuously present in the design process. The course has the following goals: 1. Basic understanding of material properties, mainly wood and steel. 2. Ability to calculate the structural elements of a simple wood or steel structure. 3. Ability to decide/select the appropriate structure: wood vs steel. 4. Understanding of the main standards and regulations that govern the design process.
