SEMESTER 4
The module emphasizes on ‘experiencing space and place’ in architecture. We are introduced to an exploration of spatial typologies & the concept of neighbourhood and community, thus explored the idea of architectural tectonics and experiences. Subsequently, the major project involves the design of a small scale community building in the open suburban condition which engages with the spirit of place inherent within the site.
This module introduces the principles and practices of construction technology for long-span and tall buildings. It focuses on the construction systems of basement, building façade and envelope systems as well as steel construction. It also covers the new and recent construction technologies and systems including modular construction (MC) and Industrialised Building System (IBS).
