SECTION II: INTRODUCTION TO THE COURSE

Course Objectives & Content

Course Objectives: Within the scope of building physics, to provide students with the ability to choose appropriate materials by learning traditional and contemporary building materials properties in the future.
Course Content: Material description and building physics problems; mechanical effects, thermal effects, water - moisture effect, sound effect, fire effect, walls, floors, types of building materials, natural stone building material, aggregates, binding building materials, terra-cotta building materials, glass, steel, wood, bitumen based building materials, plastic building material,paint and plaster coating building materials.

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs)

Course Learning Outcomes (CLOs) are those describing the knowledge, skills and competencies that students are expected to achieve upon successful completion of the course. In this context, Course Learning Outcomes defined for this course unit are as follows:
Knowledge (Described as Theoritical and/or Factual Knowledge.)
  1) Recognize various building materials used in traditional and contemporary buildings, describe material production and shaping technologies and their usage areas.
Skills (Describe as Cognitive and/or Practical Skills.)
  1) Analyze building physics problems and make design and application by considering these problems in building design.
  2) Explain the internal structure of the material and apply the right decisions in material selection.
Competences (Described as "Ability of the learner to apply knowledge and skills autonomously with responsibility", "Learning to learn"," Communication and social" and "Field specific" competences.)
  1) Distinguish the behavior of the material in the face of physical, mechanical, chemical and various events and apply these situations in the structure.
  2) Defines the basic information about the reasons of deterioration of materials and the protection methods to be taken and can structure this information in his / her professional life.
