ARCH 317 Building Technologies IV
This module will look at building assembly and sequence from foundation and soils to wall and roof sections. Focus will be on studying wood, concrete, and steel as applicable to both the assembly and structure of a building. The module will further explore architectural structures including principles of compression, tension, gravitational, lateral loads and seismic loads. Emphasis will be on understanding concepts such as center of gravity, shear, deflection, and bending moments.
