Learning Outcomes

Students are introduced to the theoretical and practical considerations for using natural materials in existing and new construction. They gain a basic understanding of the characteristics of natural building materials compared to standard fossil-based building materials in relation to their embodied energy and life-cycle potential. They begin to assess how these characteristics relate to other considerations such as structural design and building physics. Students are introduced to a series of different construction techniques and understand how these techniques are suited to different kinds of construction tasks and building elements. They gain initial hands-on experience with selected natural building materials and techniques through practical workshops and exercises, allowing them to link theoretical knowledge to practical applications in construction. The module should give students the necessary base knowledge and experience to start applying natural building materials and techniques in their design projects. The Module transfers primarily: Fachkompetenz 30% Methodenkompetenz 30% Systemkompetenz 30% Sozialkompetenz 10 %

Content

In the module, the following subject-specific contents will be taught: basic theoretical understanding of natural building materials as an alternative to fossil-based building materials in architecture, a basic practical understanding of the concerns that define how and where to apply natural building techniques in different contexts, introductory practical experience with the natural building materials and techniques covered in the module, basic understanding of the regulations and norms that cover natural building materials and techniques.
