Catalog description

This course provides an overview of the fundamental building systems, including architecture, mechanical, electrical, structural, and construction systems. Students will explore how these systems work together to create functional, efficient, and sustainable buildings. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the components, operation, and integration of each system within the context of building design and construction. Through lectures, case studies, and practical examples, students will gain foundational knowledge that will prepare them for more advanced study or careers in architecture, engineering, or construction management. 3
