Provides an introductory overview of the various materials used in construction. Topics covered: structural, physical and long-term performance, material and product manufacturing, common building systems and construction principles.

Introduction to the mechanical behavior of building materials for students of construction technology and architecture. Basic structural concepts, including statics and strength of materials, are addressed in a practical hands-on manner.

This course provides an introduction into construction-related Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) tools. By using industry-standard software in exercises and projects, students gain the capability to model construction projects and create industry-standard architectural drawings.
