Principles of Structure (Prinsip Struktur)
This course provides understanding of basic principles of structure in architecture. Students are given the understanding through theories and hands-on experiences by demonstrating, investigating, and analysing ”4S+1D” (structural stability, strength, safety, synergy, and durability). Topics related with basic mechanics in engineering in the field of construction and its relation to architectural work as well as various types of building materials for application in building design are also given to strengthen the knowledge of the students.
Both conventional and studio-based classes are integrated in realising the project-based learning method. Students are facilitated with fun learning approaches through guided open-ended cases to be solved with their understanding in principles of structure and characteristic of the materials.Teacher: Yani Rahmawati
