BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES I
Construct Architecture The course offers insight into fundamental aspects of the construction of a building. It starts from a basic range of materials and their various roles in building construction in its different historical contexts. Students will explore the relationship between material properties, technology and form as a defining principle. In this, the aim is to de-
velop essential knowledge about basic structure and technologies, as well as about their architectural relevance in a broader sense. We will discuss historically important applications and put them in relation to contemporary and cutting-edge technologies. In doing so, we will reflect on building practices and architectural construction, providing a comprehensive overview of construction technologies.

BUILDING STRUCTURES II
The course developes students’ understanding of structural and material behavior. Here, the teaching of building structures is integrated into the design process. Thus, the students can directly apply this knowledge to their design and obtain professional advice for specific projects.

BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES III
In Detail
AU_1.16 Thu 13.00–14.30
Building Technologies III aims to consolidate students’ knowledge of building technology. The courses subjects of discussion are the production of details and the reciprocity between construction and detailing processes. Details and its presence or necessity for the production of buildings have been uttermost discussed in architectural discourse, but so far only on a visual level. Thus remaining the discussion on the surface of things. We intend therefore to explore the genesis of ideas and architectures departing from the very core and intrinsic characteristics of the discrete detail.
