Prerequisites
The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
Main themes
In Brussels, the teaching is cumulative and progressive, from the shell to the finishing details, while in Tournai construction and materials are taught in a global way; in this way, students can form logical groupings.
This teaching unit complements and takes further the description of materials, elements and methods of construction in previous teaching units and develops specific questions linked to the practice of construction in complex situations and in real conditions. The unit deals with construction in an architectural dimension and aims to explore particular methods of implementation.

The objective of this teaching unit is to generate the necessary skills to bring architectural objectives into line with how to translate them into material terms. This teaching unit focuses particularly on one dimension of the profile of a Bachelor level graduate in Architecture: developing a technical dimension. Specific learning outcomes: By the end of the course, students will be able to put forward appropriate building solutions regarding construction in complex situations. identify the methods of organisation of work on site. Contribution to the learning outcomes reference framework: Use the technical dimension

Content
The course covers some of the themes and concepts covered in Bac 1 and Bac 2. Starting from the general principles taught, the course opens the field of constructive possibilities in relation to architectural ambitions, more particularly on the following themes:
• Foundations and buried constructions (reminder)
• Frame constructions: Steel, Concrete
• Vertical circulations
• Metal windowframe
• Interior finishes: screeds and floor coverings, partitions, plastering, interior woodwork, false ceilings / false floors
