Building Construction and Material
Project 1: Famous Architect Buildings
For our first project of the semester we were tasked with researching on famous Architects and some of the iconic buildings they have designed to produce a poster which provides information on the materiality of the building, both structural and architectural as well as a brief background of the Architect and the building chosen.
​
For my project i chose the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao by the famous Frank Gehry which was is very popular and known as on of Gehry's best work to date.
Project 2: Construction Detailing of Building Elements
The project required us in groups to produce construction drawing of one of our studio 2 project and to emphasize on the details of constructions.
After the project two all that was left was our final examination. The exam consisted of most topics covered during the semester and composed mainly of questions which tested our drawing skills and also giving some definitions of construction terms.
​
The module was a really informative one. The lecturers and tutors delivered it brilliantly and i am looking forward to Advanced Building Construction in the upcoming semesters.
