Objective

On completion of the course, the student
- can describe the basic building physical phenomena along with the quantities and present the quantities and laws related to them
- can make building physical models to be used in structural design
- can model the thermal, moisture technical and noise reduction related qualities of completely new structures which opens up the opportunity to work in innovative research and development projects
- can list components of the building envelope, the stresses on the envelope and different types of envelopes
- can design, considering the requirements from environmental exposure, the structures of a building envelope i.e. external walls, roof, bottom floor.
