Working materials will be provided in OPAL.
Contents and qualification objectives:
The module covers building with renewable raw materials, maintenance of buildings, environmental compatibility of building materials, recycling of building materials and sustainable structural design.
After completing the module, students will have in-depth knowledge of the use of wood and wood-based materials in the construction industry with a focus on environmentally friendly manufacturing and processing technologies. They will have mastered the basics of environmentally friendly maintenance of buildings and will be able to assess the environmental compatibility of building materials from their production and use to their disposal or recycling. In addition, they have knowledge of environmentally friendly production and recycling technologies for mass construction materials including asphalt. Students know about processing techniques for construction waste and the reuse of the material obtained in this way. They are also familiar with the special features of sustainable construction planning, production, transportation and assembly as well as the necessary ecologically relevant verifications including construction examples.
Teaching methods:
6 SWS lecture
Prerequisites for participation:
The competencies to be acquired in the modules Building Materials (BIW1-08), Fundamentals of Design (BIW2-01) and Steel Construction, Timber Construction and Application of Fracture Mechanics (BIW3-03) are assumed.
Applicability:
In the undergraduate Civil Engineering degree program: Compulsory elective module in the main course, in particular for the specializations in structural engineering and hydraulic engineering and environment. In the postgraduate Civil Engineering degree program: Compulsory elective module, in particular for the specializations Structural Engineering and Hydraulic Engineering and Environment
Requirements for the awarding of credit points:
Credit points are awarded if the module examination (180 min) is passed. Each subject area accounts for 30 minutes of the examination per SWS lecture.
Credit points and grades:
8 credit points can be earned through the module. The module grade is calculated from the arithmetic mean of the grades of the two examinations.
Frequency of the module:
Module is offered every academic year, starting in the winter semester.
Workload:
The total workload is 240 hours.
Duration of the module:
7th semester: 2 SWS lecture Building with renewable raw materials
7th semester: 1 SWS lecture Maintenance of buildings and environmental compatibility of building materials
8th semester: 1 SWS lecture Sustainable structural design
8th semester: 2 SWS lecture Building materials recycling
