Learning unit contents

Traditional process and rational process of the architectural designing, synthesis methodology.
Architectural programming elements: functional requirements and internal and external local performances.
Insertion in a site

  • Integration visual approaches
  • Construction on sloping sites
  • Incorporation with the relief, differentiated accesses
Bioclimatic design:
  • Climatic Data, modifying factors of the climate
  • Human comfort
  • Solar Geometry: spherical projections and applications: site analysis, sunspot, solar protections
  • Climatic design principles: passive heating and cooling (light emitting, conservation, insulation, ventilation)
  • Case study
Application: bioclimatic design project
