Course Description
This course is the first part of two parts for the graduation project. Integrated design deliveries are involved in order to address architectural, structural, construction, services and environmental aspects.
The course concentrates on preparing and developing the required program an engineer must complete in order to understand the building’s users, building codes, building constraints and design requirements in developing the final program. Building Information Modelling (BIM) is used to address an integrated process that utilizes reliable information about the project from design, construction and into operation by using BIM to create coordinated, digital design information, and documentation as well as accurately visualize, simulate and analyse performance.
The students will focus on the architectural and structural aspects and their integration with both the technical and service aspects. The project vehicle for this exercise should reflect the corresponding complexity of multi-functional and multi-story structures.
