PROJECT 2 - UNDERSTANDING FORCES IN B.CON
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION 2
PROJECT 1- SKELETAL CONSTRUCTION
In a group of 6, we are asked to build a scale 1:5 temporary bus shelter to show our understanding towards basic construction. In this project, I've learned to apply construction systems in design and analysed the issues of strength, stiffness and stability.
This subject aims to introduce structures as architecture by developing an understanding of the structural systems in construction technology in a unique way in relation to historical and innovate buildings. Skeletal, solid and surface construction systems are discussed and analyzed in terms of load and forces in a general term
Learning Outcomes
1. Identify basic structural systems in construction
2. Recognize the implication of construction systems in design
3. Able to compare the different type of construction system
4. Apply construction systems in design
5. Differentiate construction systems in terms of loads and forces acting on its structural elements
6. Analyze the issues of strength , stiffness and stability of structures including modes of structural systems, forces, stress and strain and laws of static.
We proposed Haesley Nine Bridges Clubhouse as our case study for grid shell construction. By looking into the construction methods and details of the building, we are able to recognize and apply the construction systems into the design.
