The studio concerns the design of complex, environmentally sustainable, energy saving oriented building, from the point of view of building technical installations; and materials and building techniques.
Technology insights on materials and construction techniques appropriate to the theme.
Maturing of relations between fundamental knowledge of technical physics (aimed at analyzing wrap-environment) and the resulting system solutions to be implemented in complex buildings with focal analysis of the main thermo plants.

The training that will be carried out during the course and which will be subject of the final exam is scheduled as follows:
1. Analysis of external environmental characteristics (sunshine, prevailing winds, noise sources, land morphology, surrounding urban fabric, etc.) and what impact these variables have on the design of the volumes and surfaces of the envelope and on the orientation building in a site.
2. Analysis of the activities that will take place in each area of the building and identification of the optimal environmental conditions for them
3. Sizing / verification of the dimensions of the glass surfaces in 2 environments (one large space that characterizes the common areas, and a second one that represents the private space of the rooms) through the method of calculating the daylight factor
4. approximate calculation of summer and winter heat loads and ventilation requirements; verification of compliance with current regulations regarding the containment of energy consumption
5. Location and approximate sizing of the technological plants: thermal power station plant, refrigeration plant, environments containing the air treatment units
6. Passive fire prevention design: identification of escape routes, emergency exits, compartmentalization.
Programme
The applied physics for architecture programme focuses on accompanying the architectural design process up to the preliminary stage. The concept design will be then further developed up to the executive level inside the 2M course.The training that will be carried out during the course and which will be subject of the final exam is scheduled as follows:

Lectures are provided In the fields of HVAC systems, lighting and multimedia systems, architectural acoustics design. National and international case studies are analyzed. The submentioned metodologies are applied on the project developed In architectural project module.Attendance
Attendance is required for at least 75% of the lessonsType of evaluation
The Studio evaluates the final design, by looking at the process that evolved it from the original outcome of the previous studio, and looking at how much the final architectural output, and possibily its quality, is the result of a efficient synthesis of the technical issues introduced and developed in the studio. Two sets of documentation are used for final evaluation: - a "design book" in A3/presentation format, where Architectural Design is presented as synthesis of all technical contributions of the Studio Modules, showing its relationships and cultural position within their topics; - a set of technical drawings, at appropriate scales, simulating a detail level close to Construction Documentation / RIBA Stage 4. The set contains the conventional 2D representations (plans, sections, elevations, details) aside 3D representations aimed at showing construction consistency and architectural impact of the "detailed design" choices; Both sets are revisioned all along the semester, since the design book is the base for public presentation of the projects to the teaching body, while drwings are the base for individual revisions, and significant extracts are also selected and published in the book. Drawings have to be sumbitted in a pre-exam evaluation in order for the group to be admitted to the final exam. The final exam is an oral colloquim with every single group based on the book presentation, and the evaluation of PDF developed by single students as personal assignments. Those drawings, already evaluated in the pre-exam session, are submitted one day in advance to the colloquium date. The teaching body then takes its time to develop the final judgment on each group work and a single evaluation for their components. teacher profile teaching materials
