Course Objectives Development of perception of balance and structure within the context of Industrial Design
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Learns structural contributions in product design
  • Constructs structural details using basic materials
  • Reveals and solves structure and balance problems in the design process
  • Learns basic information on support and truss connections
  • Presents the revealed solutions effectively
Course Content The course covers the overview of the basic structure concepts and construction of application projects with simple materials. It is a theoretical course including the physical and mechanical properties of materials, types of loads and forces applied on the objects, pressure and form deformations resulting from pressure, properties of objects and materials such as rigidity and the effects of elasticity, tensile, compression, bending and folding actions.
