CEM 45100: Integrative Building Design

Reddit

Catalog

This course introduces the architectural and constructive challenges of comprehensive, integrated building design. In lectures, the range of constituent systems (active and passive) that combine to produce contemporary buildings will be presented with particular attention to the specific parameters and metrics that drive their functionality and performance. The central project is an extended exercise in design modeling: applying iterative refinements to introduce additional layers of systemic complexity and to respond to specific analytical measures of building performance. Success in this course will support the ability to productively contribute to building and construction projects from a variety of specific roles.
