Contenu du cours

This unit “Architectural Design and Construction” offers the ability to formulate and criticize the mechanical functioning of building structures, and to assess the specific issues raised by the design of a structure with a view to making reasonable, coherent, and rational choices. Also, we push to evaluate the technical and constructive principles, to analyse and use technical documents and to dialogue professionally with the engineer based on rigorous structural reflexivity.

Contribution au profil d'enseignement

• Design a project to experiment and be innovative with a proposal including the integration of human, technical and economic constraints of the design project.
• Develop a reflexive attitude enriching the theories and practices of architecture: master and integrate the technical and human sciences of architectural design, manufacture, and transmit a design expertise, problematize a research question around the process.
• Build as an architect ethical and responsible practice: consider architecture as a cultural discipline constantly renewed, in constant touch with developments of artistic and social practices.
• Interact with all the actors involved in the issues of space and architecture: Foster experimentation and creativity; communicate in a clear and structured way for experienced or not public, the architectural design process tracking and its spatial production.
