Programme

The course aims to provide students with technical and methodological tools to make meaningful choices in defining the constructive aspects of the project.
Students will be guided to the understanding the behavior of the building as a whole, considered as an integrated system for generating the comfort.
Will be illustrated materials and construction techniques that can be considered innovative for degree of efficiency and environmental sustainability, stimulating students' sensitivity to the energy and environmental topics.
They will address the issues of energy renovation for existing residential buildings and new construction, with a focus on technology lightweight construction.

Type of delivery of the course

The course mainly includes lectures on the topics of technology and innovation in the building sector, also through conferences and seminars with building sector specialists. The course also includes that students, working in the classroom with the supervision of the teacher, try to apply the concepts learned during the lesson to the project they will develop for the exam.

Attendance

Attendance is required for at least 75% of the lessons

Type of evaluation

For the Covid emergency, the examination will take place remotely according to the indications of the Rectorate (D.R.n. 703/2020) The exam will be oral upon presentation by the candidates of the requested graphic works. These papers must be delivered 5 working days before the appeal to allow the teacher to examine them. During the oral exam, candidates will have to illustrate the project strategies and will have to answer the teacher's questions. The exam will take place in public form in the sense that all students enrolled in the course or anyone who specifically requests it from the teacher can always assist at a distance. The exam will take place using the Microsoft Teams or Zoom software. The exam cannot be recorded. The exam aims at assessing the level of learning of the course topics through the discussion of project documents the documents must contain: analysis of the status of the building being studied definition of the critical issues detected schemes related to the strategies hypothesized for the resolution of critical issues facades, plants and cross sections of the actual state facades, plants and cross sections of the modified state stratigraphy of the ante and post-work envelope construction details of the project proposal (1:20)

Programme

Training objectives of the course
THE COURSE AIMS TO PROMOTE A CULTURE OF INNOVATION, WITH PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION STRATEGIES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF ENERGY EFFICIENT BUILDINGS IN TEMPERATE CLIMATES.
AFTER EXPLORING THE BUILDING SYSTEM / EQUIPMENT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF INTERIOR COMFORT, THE OPPORTUNITY TO COMPETE WITH THE TRENDS OF SOCIAL EXPECTATIONS AND WITH THE PRODUCTION SYSTEM OF INDUSTRIAL AND URBAN REGENERATION TOWARDS THE SMART CITY IS GIVEN.

Prerequisites
CONOSCENZE DI FISICA TECNICA, BIOCLIMATICA, SCIENZA DEI MATERIALI, RIGENERAZIONE URBANA SONO ESSENZIALI ALLA COMPRENSIONE DEGLI OBIETTIVI DEL CORSO

Course programme

THE COURSE DEALS WITH THE CONTEMPORARY METHODS AND PRACTICES LINKED TO THE BUILDING PROCESS. IN THE ITALIAN FRAMEWORK A VERY URGENT PROBLEM IS THE ENERGY RETROFITTING OF THE EXISTING REAL ESTATE. THROUGH LECTURES, MEETING WITH EXPERTS OR FIRMS, EXERCISES, THE COURSE AIMS TO DEFINE THE METHODS FOR THE RETROFITTING TILL A DETAILED SCALE.

Didactic Methods
LECTURES, MOVIES PROJECTION, DISCUSSION, CONFERENCES, EXERCISES, WORK ON LINE ARE JUST ONES OF THE DIFFERENT METHODS THAT THIS COURSE INTEND TO EXPLOIT WITH THE AIM OF ENHANCE INDIVIDUAL ABILITIES AND CREATIVENESS FOR A TECHNOLOGICAL INNOVATION PROCESS.

Learning assessment procedures
THE COURSE CONSISTS OF EXERCISES CARRIED OUT DURING THE SEMESTER AND A FINAL EXAMINATION.
