Course Objective

Correct detail means accurate thought and simple manufacturability. Joint details are developed for a healthy joining of two building elements, whether they have the same charactheristics or not, in the most economical, most accurate, simplest and easiest to construct manner. Research on solution of joints for building elements(line-line, line-plane, plane-plane) that are manufactured by industrialised manufacturing systems is aimed.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Defining concepts related to building and construction.
2   Classifying construction systems in general terms.
3   Defining elements in industrialised construction systems.
4   Solving basic joining details between line-line, line-panel, panel-panel element joints.
5   Presenting the joining details for a chosen fully or semi industrialised or rationalised construction system.
