Modulbeschreibung

Building system technologies, Building physics

Kurzzeichen:
M_GebTBau
Unterrichtssprache:
Englisch
ECTS-Credits:
4
Leitidee:

The students learn the fundamentals of technologies and the energy-efficient design of the building envelope and building system technologies in terms of generators, storages, distribution system and emission system components. This also includes the relevant standards, regulations and certification schemes and design and certification software tools applied in the construction sector.

 

Students will be capable to

  • describe the energy significance and potential of the existing Swiss building stock
  • accomplish energy and moisture protection verifications for buildings
  • characterize technologies used for space heating, domestic hot water, ventilation and space cooling/air conditioning in terms of application and advantages/disadvantages
  • design and evaluate building technology components and perform comparisons of variants
  • evaluate technology solutions for buildings technically, economically and ecologically
  • explain standards, regulations and verification procedures
