Note from June 29, 2020
Although we do not yet know how long the social distancing related to the Covid-19 pandemic will last, and regardless of the changes that had to be made in the evaluation of the June 2020 session in relation to what is provided for in this learning unit description, new learnig unit evaluation methods may still be adopted by the teachers; details of these methods have been - or will be - communicated to the students by the teachers, as soon as possible.

Prerequisites
The prerequisite(s) for this Teaching Unit (Unité d’enseignement – UE) for the programmes/courses that offer this Teaching Unit are specified at the end of this sheet.
Main themes
In Brussels, the teaching is cumulative and progressive, from the shell to the finishing details, while in Tournai construction and materials are taught in a global way; in this way, students can form logical groupings.
This teaching unit complements and takes further the description of materials, elements and methods of construction in previous teaching units and develops specific questions linked to the practice of construction in complex situations and in real conditions. The unit deals with construction in an architectural dimension and aims to explore particular methods of implementation.

Aims
At the end of this learning unit, the student is able to : | |
| 1 | The objective of this teaching unit is to generate the necessary skills to bring architectural objectives into line with how to translate them into material terms. This teaching unit focuses particularly on one dimension of the profile of a Bachelor level graduate in Architecture: developing a technical dimension. Specific learning outcomes: By the end of the course, students will be able to put forward appropriate building solutions regarding construction in complex situations. identify the methods of organisation of work on site. Contribution to the learning outcomes reference framework: Use the technical dimension
