The course Materials and Construction I in the autumn semester 2020 deals with constructive questions around the topic of soil, water and topography. The introductory lecture introduces the two parts of the lecture (Materials and Construction I and II) as a whole and illustrates with concrete examples how thinking about constructive possibilities co-determine and penetrate the design process.
Subsequently, in addition to principles in dealing with soil (floor structures, surface treatment) and water (physical state, element dynamics), a wide range of topics are discussed. These deal with current questions of today’s urban landscapes in dealing with contaminated soil, flood protection, drinking water management, etc. The topic of topography represents the continuous and connecting moment.The fundamental course Materials and Construction I (9th November – 20th November 2020) and the foundation studio I are interrelated modules.
