Course Description:	Building construction, environmental control systems and project management within the scope of detailed project. Preparation of detailed project. Preparation of detailed project according to building codes and regulations such as earthquake. Integration of building sub-systems such as load bearing, installation, mechanical, electrical systems. Preparing documents and detail drawings according to municipal drawing principles.
Course Objectives:	The aim of the course is to study the spatial and functional organization of the Multifunctional Center building in order to learn the main principles of design of this building type and to apply them in further studio project.

COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES

1	The skill to employ the fundamental principles of design when making spatial organizations (architectural design).
2	The sense of structure to ensure stability of the building and to achieve coherence between space and structure.
3	The ability to define space(s) considering the formal and topological attributes and attain the unity of spaces with different properties.
4	The awareness to pay due attention to environmental conditions, not only as design requirements but also with respect for cultural, natural and moral values.
