The purpose of the course is for the course participant to attain basic knowledge and understanding of virtual design and construction with respect to 2D-drawing and 3D-modelling with CAD- and BIM-applications. The course supports an explorative learning process in which the course participants learn how to apply CAD- and BIM-based design and construction in a realistic context. The software systems used in the course are commonly applied in the industry.

The course rests upon assignments in which a building client has
assigned the course participants, in groups of two students, to act
in the role of BIM-consultants.
The course is designed as an applied course in which the course
participants are expected to test and explore the introduced CAD-
and BIM-tools in order to carry out the analyses, simulations and
visualisations that are included in the case assignment of the
course.
The course includes separate assignments that deal with
2D-drawings, 3D-modelling including model verification,
visualization and drawings. Each assignment is reported in a
written report. Written feedback for all assignments is provided
to all course participants. There are also teaching events that
consider various applications within structural engineering,
building construction and building technology. The course ends with
a concluding and comprehensive project assignment, which also is
carried out in groups of two course participants. The topic of the
project assignment is related to the students' interest in one of
the areas buildnings or infra structure. Teachers from different
divisions with research-/teaching interest that matches the
assigned projects can act as mentors. The results of the project
assignment are reported in a written report and are presented
orally at a mandatory seminar by the end of the course. Written
feedback for the project assignments is provided to all course
participants.
Grading scale: UG - (U,G) - (Fail, Pass)
Assessment: Grading scale: Pass/Fail Assessment: The course participants are assessed on basis of their written presentation of the assignments, an oral and written presentation of the project assignment. Mandatory participation at the presentation seminar. For a pass grade, pass grade is needed for every part (assignments, written project report, oral project presentation, participation in presentation seminar).
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.
