Fundamentals of Architectural Engineering

Description: The discipline is aimed at studying the principles of designing one of the types of architectural objects - small architectural forms. The project lays the foundation for the design of subsequent, more complex types of modern architectural structures.

Amount of credits: 6

Course Workload:

Component: University component

Cycle: Base disciplines

Goal

• -the study of a complex of modern methods for designing small architectural objects in the structure of the urban environment.

Objective

• - mastering the principles of placing an object in an urban environment; - volume-spatial solution; - study of world experience in designing similar facilities; - study of the design features of the objec

Learning outcome: knowledge and understanding

• -knowledge of the basic principles of designing small architectural objects; -understanding of the role of small architectural form in the organization of urban space.

Learning outcome: applying knowledge and understanding

• - the ability to create and offer an individual solution for an object using the acquired knowledge and understanding; - apply the principles of designing small architectural forms using modern technologies and materials to create an attractive and unique image of the urban environment.

Learning outcome: formation of judgments

• - the ability to critically assess the design solutions of similar objects in architectural practice

Learning outcome: communicative abilities

• -ability to exchange professional skills and experience; - the ability to demonstrate a systematic understanding of the main methods of designing objects - small architectural forms; - the ability to participate in the discussion of professional issues.

Learning outcome: learning skills or learning abilities

• - the ability to collect, analyze and systematize the acquired knowledge and skills to solve professional problems; - the ability to navigate the information flow of material on a given topic.

Teaching methods

- the use of active forms of learning: discussion or conversation; demonstration of slides or educational films; brainstorm; - construction of scenarios for the development of various situations based on given conditions; - search and research (independent research activities of students in the learning process); - solving educational problems

Assessment of the student's knowledge

Teacher oversees various tasks related to ongoing assessment and determines students' current performance twice during each academic period. Ratings 1 and 2 are formulated based on the outcomes of this ongoing assessment. The student's learning achievements are assessed using a 100-point scale, and the final grades P1 and P2 are calculated as the average of their ongoing performance evaluations. The teacher evaluates the student's work throughout the academic period in alignment with the assignment submission schedule for the discipline. The assessment system may incorporate a mix of written and oral, group and individual formats.

The evaluating policy of learning outcomes by work type

Evaluation form

The student's final grade in the course is calculated on a 100 point grading scale, it includes:

• 40% of the examination result;
• 60% of current control result.

The final grade is calculated by the formula:

 

Where Midterm 1, Midterm 2are digital equivalents of the grades of Midterm 1 and 2;

E is a digital equivalent of the exam grade.

Final alphabetical grade and its equivalent in points:

The letter grading system for students' academic achievements, corresponding to the numerical equivalent on a four-point scale:
