Module code: CSE6018-B
‘Architectural technology plays a significant part in the project and design management process linked to the building life cycle through the integration of technology and the new world of collaborative working and creating new communities of practice. Architectural technology is critical in the digital age and empirically based design using building information modelling (BIM) relating to production, performance, environmental sustainability, economic efficiency and effectiveness and simulation, standardisation, systemisation, simulation and optimisation.’ The module aims to • Provide students with the tools and techniques (including BIM) to synthesize and evaluate contemporary civil and construction technology. • Consider construction methods, planning tools / techniques to mobilise the construction activities and supply chain; the selection of construction methods that best suit the project and the management plant, materials and workforce • Examine the technologies used in modern safe civil /construction projects covering specialist groundworks and substructure elements as well as infrastructure construction and temporary works. • Scrutinize how the project is monitored to ensure the client’s requirements are met, and how the finished project is brought to a managed and successful close. ‘Architectural technology plays a significant part in the project and design management process linked to the building life cycle through the integration of technology and the new world of collaborative working and creating new communities of practice.
