Aims :

Quality implementation in Building Design. Technical Specifications. Management of Building Projects.

Topics :

- Aspects related to programming in the building industry. The drafting methods concerning the preliminary design documents are discussed (doc. Program), with particular reference to those having requirement characteristics and those related to the analysis of techno/economic feasibility. The possible contents for the three levels of investigation foreseen by the standards, as also, the possible interactions with the decisional flows intrinsic of the initial design phases are analysed.
- Aspects related to the correct management of the design phases. In-depth analysis of the contents, methods and typologies of elaborates expected in preliminary, final and executive design phases.
- Standards related to materials and components. An analysis of the fundamental contents of many voluntary character standards regarding structure and building industry related implants are carried out. In some cases, the analysis is carried out in parallel with the contents of similar standards operating in other European countries (France, in particular). The aim is to increase the students’ ability to edit capitulary documents.
- Aspects regarding the politics of quality in the building industry. The analysis of the guidelines for planning. The application of the basic principals to the different actors involved in the building process (clients, planner, building enterprise, component manufacturer).
