Main Aims/Objectives
The subject of Buildings has the general objectives of deepening the knowledge acquired in previous years, namely, the study of detailing in order to encourage mastery of detail scales, with relevance for the preparation of the communication project for the Work.
Relate the discipline of Buildings with the practice of Integrated Project crossing information from other Curricular Units, from the perspective of interdisciplinarity.
Specific Aims/Objectives
Encouraging and stimulating research at the level of detailed execution, thus enhancing communication materials to the Work, thus integrating the knowledge acquired in the Project´s practice.
In this subject, special relevance is given to current systems (with which students will have more contact in professional practice), not neglecting the investigation of systems considered more experimental.
Skills to be acquired
Carefully define the materials, their application and all covering and/or closure of the defining surfaces of the interior and exterior spaces.
Mastery of drawing, namely in detail and detail in the most diverse graphic scales, required in a project of communication to the Work.
Teaching Procedures
The works are developed through the articulation of theoretical and practical moments. In theoretical classes, the exercises to be carried out will be presented, the themes and information necessary for the progress of the work will be introduced, as well as, periodically, presentations and results will be debated. In practical classes, proposed exercises will be implemented and executed, presented, analyzed, criticized and discussed, in groups or individually.
Programme
Constructive detail and its detailing at different scales.
Having as a work base the project developed in the Curricular Unit of Project I [which can be carried out from another project discipline, which the student is attending], the constructive detail should be studied and its detailing in the integrated graphic scales .
The syllabus of the Buildings Curricular Unit is divided into three phases:
[1st phase] Interior elevations – A3.
It is intended, in this first phase of the work, to investigate, develop and represent all the constructive components, indispensable for the correct functioning of the building, coherently integrating constructive metrics, resulting from the details and details adopted.
1.1. Representation, in esc. 1:50, of a plan and four interior elevations of at least three spaces [ex: kitchen, laundry room and living room, or bedroom, i. s. and circulation].
1.1.1. Interior elevations with the identification of the main coating materials, their stereotomy and implication in the expression and characterization of spaces.
1.1.2. All spaces represented, in the most diverse projections, must be duly dimensioned [partial and total dimensions].
1.1.3. Installation of all fixed equipment, with implications for water and sewage infrastructure.
1.1.4. Implementation and metric study of all fixed furniture, that is, defining spatial limits.
1.2. Representation of the finishing map, with the following indications: “material used”, “unit dimensioning”, “construction function” and total and partial areas to be adopted for each space, namely walls, floors, ceilings and/or sub-ceilings .
[2nd phase] Planned cuts – A2.
From one of the interior elevations in the first phase of the practical work, you should represent the planned cuts, thus defining all the material covering and/or enclosing the surfaces defining the interior spaces.
2.1. Representation, on a 1:10 scale, of the different strata that incorporate the walls, ceilings, sub-ceilings and floors, of the spaces identified in the planned sections.
2.1.1. In scales, 1:2 and/or 1:1, representation of two construction details, the relationship between the wall with ceilings or sub-ceilings and the floor.
2.1.2. Identification of rough and finishing dimensions.
2.1.3. The drawings of the details and flattened cuts must be quoted in cm, and their main dimensions identified.
2.1.4. The labeling model to be adopted in the drawing must clearly identify the “constructive function”, “material used” and “general sizing” of the different materials to be applied.
[3rd Phase] Frames – A2
It is up to the student in this third phase of the semester exercise, to choose an outer and an inner span, to detail. In this way, the domain of detail scales is encouraged, with relevance for the study of compositional and spatial metrics, important for the foundation and architectural expression of the studied building.
3.1. Representation of two spans on a 1:50 scale, [two elevations and two sections for each span] with partial cuts to scale, 1:2, of the interior and exterior frames, with particular importance for the carpentry and/or metalwork detail.
3.1.1. Detail drawings must be dimensioned in cm [relative dimensions], and the main dimensions must be identified;
3.1.2. The details must be duly labeled, with information regarding the composition of the window and door, carpentry and/or metalwork details, wall attachment method and finishes.
3.2. Representation of a frame for each span, identifying: 1-Designation and location; 2-Operation; 3-Hardware; 4–Glass; 5-Finishing material; 6-Door; 7-Dimension of span [rough]; 8-Sheet size.
Evaluation Type
Due to the nature of the discipline, the assessment will be continuous and permanent. In this sense, attendance, participation in classes, continuity of work, response to problems and challenges will be taken into account. Continuous assessment will also consist of two written tests and assignments, according to the school calendar. will still be the established fundamental moments of evaluation are fulfilled: the Frequency Test and the Final Exam.
Teaching Resources
In order to achieve the objectives and skills required, the following didactic resources will be used:
- Computers;
- Specialized bibliography available at the Lusíada University media library and library;
- Indication of fundamental texts for learning and elaboration of research works;
- Multimedia material (documentaries, images, etc.);
- Laboratory classes that encourage research on construction systems and materials.
