Course Objectives Understanding structural systems in relation materials employed; understanding of different structural systems and the mechanisms/logic behind these systems; understanding the possibilities and limits of different structural systems in design; acquaintance with different structural systems used in notable buildings in the world are aimed. Emphasis will be more on basic structural concepts and graphical presentation of these systems rather than structural analysis.
Course Learning Outcomes The students who succeeded in this course;
  • Can analyze various structural systems, the functions of these systems and the materials employed.
  • Can make choices of appropriate construction materials and assembly methods for the building systems that they encounter.
  • Can propose the proper structural system for the geometries encountered in the preliminary design stage.
  • Acquires knowledge about the adaptability, performance and limits of various structural systems.
Course Content Improvement of construction and detail design capabilities through seminars, lectures and analyses; comprehension of appropriate techniques for structural system analysis, different materials and their characteristics.
