Designing and evaluation of construction elements in terms of thermal, water vapour, acoustic, and light parameters. Designing disposition and volume of a building in order to ensure optimal interior climate, and minimal energy demand in operation.

• Ability to design an optimal construction and disposition or volume solution of a building in terms of thermal and humidity, acoustic and light processes while respecting the architectural, constructional, and physical requirements.

To be awarded the credit, students submit all assigned works from individual seminars. Students who are awarded credit may take the written exam.
Evaluation is based on the successful passing of the exam. Only the students who have passed the credit may take the exam. The exam is in the form of written test. To pass the exam successfully, students must gain at least 50 % of all points.
Monitoring of compulsory attendance in the seminars and submission of required seminar works, substitutive dates of seminars or lectures are agreed with students in advance. Submitted assignments are regularly consulted and approved by the teacher.
Upon the agreement with the teacher, the absences in the classroom can be compensated via online participation.
