This course deals with how to put components together in order to provide shelter against the outside climate, the application of different indoor climate criteria and the construction of simple building service systems for ventilation, heating, tap water, waste water and rainwater. Also studied are the coordination of building services with building plans and structure. Simple drawings and the reading/understanding complex drawings will also be addressed.
Grading scale: TH - (U,3,4,5) - (Fail, Three, Four, Five)
Assessment: The examination consists of two written exams, one for building technology and one for building services engineering, compulsory construction tasks and the course start with a compulsory workshop. Both exams consist of a theoretical part and a calculation part, both must be approved at the same occasion. The final grade is weighted together by the two exams. Well performed construction tasks can raise the final grade. The course includes a compulsory assignment on group dynamics.
The examiner, in consultation with Disability Support Services, may deviate from the regular form of examination in order to provide a permanently disabled student with a form of examination equivalent to that of a student without a disability.
