 -- LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT
This course is based on the basic concepts and theoretical background of M207.
Passive heating, cooling and ventilation techniques are analised and discussed.
The theorical base of passive heating and cooling strategies are supported with distinguished building examples selected as best examples from the wor
The aim is to develop an understanding that an integrated approach to building systems is the main tool of resource and energy efficiency in environme
. The aims is also to bring a new generation of architects with energy and ecology conscious design strategies,
adopting and developing eco-technologies, passive and active use of renewable energy sources.
A new generation of architects with energy and ecology conscious design strategies.
