Bachelor s Degree in Technical Architecture. 2 nd YEAR Materials II ECTS credits: 6 Semester: 1. Teaching objectives

Transcription

1 2 nd YEAR 6446 Materials II Learn about the origin, formation and usefulness of aggregates in producing concrete, as well as their properties and the uses they offer in terms of construction. Understand the manufacturing processes of concrete and conglomerate products, as well as metallic materials; the physical-chemical characteristics produced by the transformation of the raw materials, which explain the properties of the resulting materials. Analyse the behaviour of different construction materials and how they respond to the environment in which they are used, analysing all possible defects and ways of preventing them. Understand and learn how to interpret the regulation governing the sale of materials, the CE Marking process and verification methods, as well as laboratory trials that make it possible to determine the properties of materials Installations I ECTS credits: 3 Semester: 1 Understand the principles that explain the physical fundamentals of plumbing systems, cold water supply, hot water supply and drainage. Analyse the characteristics of previous installations in building works. Analyse the sections of the TBC and other European directives that make reference to drinking water supply systems. Understand the technical characteristics and behaviour of materials and fittings used in water supply systems. Analyse plumbing and drainage systems. Redesign and calculate different types of systems. Analyse technical documents for the materials and elements that form part of water supply systems. 2 nd Year 1/5

2 6448 Construction III Students should be able to identify different construction systems and methods used in building concrete structures. They should know the process of execution, mandatory regulations, and all applicable good practice guidelines, which also allow them to clearly define the various construction details and their implementation in the simplest terms. Provide students with the ability to identify the auxiliary elements to use in executing each structural element. Provide them with the resources needed to make sound judgements so that they can discern which option is the most appropriate in each, specific case Legal Aspects of Building Gain knowledge of the regulatory legal requirements affecting construction work, the legal framework in which professionals will carry out their work, regardless of the chosen career path (site manager, technical project manager, safety coordinator or project planner): - Statutory obligations to be met by agents involved in building works - Responsibilities that may be required of them - Contractual agreements between agents (both in private and public works) - Documentation and paperwork required for construction projects - Administrative operations (permits, etc.) - Legal obligations Ability to plan a construction project, to know how it operates, as well as to correctly carry out the assigned roles in order to avoid the liabilities that come into play when obligations are not met. Ability to update and adapt acquired knowledge in response to either legal modifications or different regulations issued by autonomous regions or municipal governments Enterprise Economy Students should gain an understanding of how a company operates from an economic standpoint. To this end, the course focuses on: 2 nd Year 2/5

3 - Economics and economic analysis - Business and markets, identifying concepts like supply and demand - Cost analysis - Investment assessment - Accounting and financial analysis - The real estate sector Humanistic questions on how the business owner should view the worker and how the worker should view the company-business owner Architectural Drawing II ECTS credits: 3 Semester: 1 Acquire a formal vision of the architectural artefact through perception, analysis, knowledge and representation of spaces, forms and architectural elements. Apply knowledge of basic geometry and representational systems, along with the specific rules, symbols and conventions of representation, as methods and procedures to represent the formal elements of architecture. Use drawing as a method of formal and proportional analysis of architectural elements, understanding the importance of precise data collection for their subsequent scaled representation, and understanding its role as a means of expression prior to drawing up plans. Know how to interpret the information contained in an architectural drawing and communicate it through the graphic documents of a basic architectural design. Apply graphic techniques, both manual and computer-aided, with the skill demanded by the graphic language, taking into account the importance of precision and composition, as well as the finish and presentation of an architectural drawing Topography & Land Surveying - Understand how surveying applies to construction and the problems it can solve. - Gain familiarity with the most common surveying methods and know how to apply the most appropriate one in each case. Gain a solid command of grading, topographical surveys, topographical systems of representation, interpreting plans and replanning structures. - Know the most common surveying equipment and how to use it. - Good command of how to calculate earth movements 2 nd Year 3/5

4 6453 Installations II Design, computation, execution and verification of heating, ventilation and cooling systems. (Climate control) Understand and apply specific regulations on climate control systems. Calculate and measure the system in each individual case. Monitor and plan the on-site installation of the system. Verify service and supply tests for the system. Understand the maintenance and consumption of the system Construction IV Students should know the different construction systems and methods used in building structures using steel, wood or stone. They should know the process of execution, mandatory regulations, and all applicable good practices guidelines, which also allow them to clearly define the various construction details and their implementation in the simplest terms. Provide students with the ability to identify the auxiliary elements to use in executing each structural element. Provide them with the resources needed to make sound judgements, so that they can discern which option is the most appropriate in each, specific case Fundamentals of Structures Students will learn the most common and simplest calculation methods appropriate to the physical and visual interpretation of results. To this end, students will have to review and prepare a series of basic contents, which are described in the appendix. This course places particular emphasis on states of tension and deformations resulting from normal forces on axial sections, cut surfaces, bending moments and torsional moments. 2 nd Year 4/5

5 6456 Architectural Drawing III Apply an understanding of the methods, techniques and procedures of representing the overall architectural project along with the details of which it is comprised, tackling practice at different design levels. Students should be able to use specific graphic language by applying manual and computer-aided techniques with utmost skill, allowing them to understand, apply and evaluate the graphic procedures and techniques of the finish and presentation of a contemporary architectural drawing. Integrate knowledge acquired from other disciplines in a cross-curricular fashion, gaining an overall understanding from a graphic effectiveness perspective. Train professionals to competently perform project management duties, enabling them to communicate in a universal language. Analysis of the range of architectural elements. Interpret architectural planimetric information and be able to communicate this information in the context of professional practice. 2 nd Year 5/5
