VERSION SPECIFIC DATA
course aims in Estonian
Aine eesmärk on anda ülevaade moodulmajade ja nende projekteerimise spetsiifikast.
course aims in English
The aim of this course is to give an overview of modular houses and their design principles.
learning outcomes in the course in Est.
Kursuse läbinud üliõpilane:
- analüüsib ja võtab arvesse moodulmajade arhitektuurilist lahendust mõjutavaid asjaolusid;
- kirjeldab moodulmajade elementide ja hoone kui terviku jäigastamise põhimõtteid;
- teeb olulised tugevusarvestused;
- kavandab põhikonstruktsioonid ja detailid;
- arvestab projekteerimisel moodulmajade spetsiifikast tulenevaid peamisi ehitusfüüsikalisi aspekte (niiskusturvalisus, õhupidavuse tagamine, heliisolatsioon);
- arvestab projekteerimisel moodulmajade transpordi ja paigalduse põhimõtteid.
learning outcomes in the course in Eng.
After completing the course, the student:
- analyses and considers the aspects influencing the architectural solutions of modular houses;
- describes the principles of hardening the house elements and building as a whole;
- makes essential strength calculations;
- designs the main structure and details;
- considers the main aspects of construction physics (moisture safety, air tightness, soundproofing insulation) characteristic of modular houses during the design process;
- considers the transportation and installation principles of modular houses during the design process.
brief description of the course in Estonian
Moodulmaja ja selle spetsiifika. Arhitektuurilist lahendust mõjutavad asjaolud. Tugevusarvutused, hoone kui terviku ja elementide jäigastamine. Ehitusfüüsikalised aspektid: niiskusturvalisus, õhupidavuse tagamine, heliisolatsioon. Konstruktsioonilised ja arhitektuursed lahendused erinevate projektide näitel, moodullahenduste näiteid maailmast. Erilised moodulid ja lahendused projektide näitel (nt trepikojad, liftišahtid, rõdud). Tehnosüsteemid moodulmajas ja nende paigaldamine. Moodulmajade liinitootmine. Moodul¬majade transport ja paigaldus.
brief description of the course in English
Modular houses and their features. Factors influencing architectural solutions. Strength calculations, hardening the building as a whole and its elements. The aspects of constructions physics, i.e., moisture safety, air tightness, sound insulation. Construction and architectural solutions on the example of various projects, examples of modular solutions from around the world. Special modules and solutions on the example of projects (e.g., staircases, elevators, balconies). Technical systems and their installation in modular houses. Line production in modular house manufacturing. The transport and installation of modular houses.
type of assessment in Estonian
Mitteeristav hindamine, hinnatakse lõpuprojekti ja selle kaitsmise põhjal.
type of assessment in English
Pass/fail assessment; the students are assessed on the basis of the design and defence of their final projects.
