ARCH 1010 - Introduction to Building Physics & Sustainability


Credits: 3

This course covers mathematical applications for design (trigonometry, analytic geometry, systems of equations, and vectors), fundamental physics required for understanding buildings (force, reactions, thermodynamics, energy, and material properties), and the principles of sustainability (ecology, economics, and equity). These topics are implemented in ARCH 2040 , and throughout the design studio progression.

Prerequisite: Placement in MATH 1010 or higher
