Objectives of the Course Makes architecrtural students to gain ability of understand changes in existing buildings with the frame of basic content and structural design principles.It contributes developing creative ideas during 3d , spatial design prrocess of design project of by understanding contents,abilities and extends of structure basicly.In addition by anaylses of successful buildings about structure systems provides students to gain ability of making synthesis and analysis.
Contents of the Course In the content of course , weekly lectures will explained to students by power point presenttaions and technical drawings.It is expected from students to make given building models and presentations about given subjects on time.Models that are especially given for developing skills on 3d design,must be studied and developed by students.
