Building Envelope Design & Construction
Lecture
Main Campus
Course Description
This course investigates the building envelope: the walls, roof, floors, and foundation. More than just an assembly of materials to form an enclosure, the building envelope determines the thermal comfort, energy consumption (and production), structural expression, qualities of light and material experience of a space. These parameters will be explored through the observation, documentation, and analysis of building envelopes, with a focus on sustainability.
