Institute of Building Structures (PST)

Students will learn about the hygrothermal processes in building envelopes, will be able to perform basic division of roof and facade cladding in terms of pitch, shape, design, usability, requirements, etc. will be able to determine the external and internal boundary conditions for the proper design and roof designs over heated and unheated spaces. Students will learn plotting roofs of the applicable standards.

Technical terminology, basic requirements to various types of building (functional, structural and architectural), basic knowledge about constructional systems, competence to choice of system commensurate with type of building, spatial stiffness provision of constructional system. Drawing knowledge of basic constructional types, competence of building drawings reading.

Terminology, loading of buildings, mechanical resistance and stability, addressing stress in building structures, knowledge in soil mechanics and foundation engineering, material characteristics, knowledge of building physics.
Thermal-moisture processes in building envelopes, basic classification of roofs according to a pitch, shape, structure, serviceability, requirements etc. Outer and inner boundary conditions for roof designs above heated and unheated spaces and substructures. Drawing and

Throughout the lectures it handles about the lecturing activities of teachers and that of representatives of engineering practice. The practices are then focused on actual building design of a part of a construction in the form of project documentation for building permission. The teaching methods do depend on the way of teaching and are described in article 7 of the Study and Examination Regulations of the VUT.

Altogether it is necessary to actively participate the practices, with parallel consultations and submissions of the assigned work (drawings) according to the schedule of practices, which are then required to be handed in together within the credit week in a prescribed manner. To pass the course, it is necessary to get the credit from practices, to obtain more than 60% of the points in the written exam and pass the oral examination.
