Throughout the practices of this particular course the students are to work on part of the building design documentation for building permit application of an individually assigned building. The drawings and reports they make should respect the latest amendments of Building Code and accompanying decrees as well as the latest standards. The individually assigned building should be a detached or semi-detached house with a simple disposition, and a partial or full basement. Also, it should have at most 2 above ground storeys, whereas the second floor can be replaced by a loft space. While the students are working on the building documentation (drawings, reports) they are to demonstrate their knowledge regarding building construction, structural mechanics, building physics, … - therefore the knowledge they obtained by studying at the university. Albeit that’s not all, with this approach the students will acquire some skills helpful for them into the future. In general, some skill related to individual work or work in groups.
