Learning unit contents
This course aims to explore in depth the building techniques in terms of performance of
building envelopes and some energy systems.
The course includes the following topics:
- the building energy balance,
- the EPB current energy legislation,
- the assessment of occupants' comfort,
- the infiltration, condensation and transfer of water vapor in buildings,
- the heating and cooling systems.
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The course objectives are:
- Knowing the different techniques for building envelopes and energy systems.
-Acquiring skills necessary to be able to select the best techniques for a specific building project.
- Being able to make the calculations associated to a preliminary energy design of buildings.
- Knowing the current standards and being able to complete a project according to them.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills
ARCH3258-1: Techniques de construction durable des bâtiments I : Eléments
Planned learning activities and teaching methods
During practical works, students have to develop technical details for buildings and systems design and calculate their energy performance.
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)
From September to December, on Thursday Morning or Friday afternoon.
Recommended or required readings
The slides are provided during the course (in pdf).
Assessment methods and criteria
A written exam.
The practical work carried out at the same time as the course accounts for half of the final assesment, with the other half given by the project jury.
Students who have not completed all the mandatory activities may not be admitted to the
exam (if an exam is organized). The absence of mandatory elements does not allow a
quantified evaluation of the student's work. An "A" grade is therefore awarded in
this case (unless there is a special justification examined fairly by the teacher and
accepted by him).
