Optimizing Existing Building Types

Module name (EN):
Name of module in study programme. It should be precise and clear.
Optimizing Existing Building Types
Degree programme:
Study Programme with validity of corresponding study regulations containing this module.
Architecture, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2013
Module code: B-A-5.8
SAP-Submodule-No.:
The exam administration creates a SAP-Submodule-No for every exam type in every module. The SAP-Submodule-No is equal for the same module in different study programs.
P120-0037, P120-0038
Hours per semester week / Teaching method:
The count of hours per week is a combination of lecture (V for German Vorlesung), exercise (U for Übung), practice (P) oder project (PA). For example a course of the form 2V+2U has 2 hours of lecture and 2 hours of exercise per week.
2V+3VU (5 hours per week)

Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

B-A-5.8 (P120-0037, P120-0038) Architecture, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2013 , semester 4, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
75 class hours (= 56.25 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 123.75 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.

Learning outcomes:
Students will develop their technical skills parallel to their project studies. The renovation of old buildings, as well as the use of sound and heat insulation and energy  principles are important technical characteristics that will be developed this module.
 
The renovation of old buildings:
involves documenting a building, its construction and history, investigating and evaluating the damage and defects found, and developing an approach for dealing with it as the basis for a design concept. These issues will be dealt with theoretically in lectures and accompanied by practical work on site.
 
Sound- und thermal insulation:
At the same time, students will acquire knowledge about sound and thermal insulation and energy principles, as well as practical competence for creating energy- and resource-efficient designs, new construction tasks and conversions in existing buildings.
Students will be trained in the systematics of public-law calculations and certificates for residential buildings and their use with regard to their own designs with the aim of teaching interdisciplinary contexts.
