Course description and aims
This lecture will be given by a part-time lecturer. It is intended that through the design of bridges, students will realise that the act of design is a creative task that seeks to create a structure that is in harmony with the surrounding environment.
Student learning outcomes
1. master the fundamentals of structural design
2. understand the various roles of structural design
3. understand how to develop specific ideas through exercises
4. develop creativity and communication skills through proposals, models and presentations
Course taught by instructors with work experience
| ✔ Applicable | How instructors' work experience benefits the course |
|---|---|
| Lectures are based on specific design processes, drawing on national and international bridge design experience. |
Keywords
Structural design, bridge design, models, proposals, presentations
Competencies that will be developed
| ✔ Specialist skills | Intercultural skills | ✔ Communication skills | ✔ Critical thinking skills | ✔ Practical and/or problem-solving skills |
Class flow
After guidance and lectures by the lecturer, each student practices designing a pedestrian bridge and creates a model and a proposal. In the final lecture, they present their models and proposals, which are then critiqued by the lecturer.
