| Kurzbeschreibung | This course focuses on the analysis of innovation as a pervasive process that cut across organizational and functional boundaries. It looks at the sources of innovation, at the tools and techniques that organizations deploy to routinely innovate, and the strategic implications of technical change. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | This course intends to enable all students to: - understand the core concepts necessary to analyze how innovation happens - master the most common methods and tools organizations deploy to innovate - develop the ability to critically evaluate the innovation process, and act upon the main obstacles to innovation | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | This course looks at technology and innovation management as a process. Continuously, organizations are faced with a fundamental decision: they have to allocate resources between well-known tasks that reliably generate positive results; or explore new ways of doing things, new technologies, products and services. The latter is a high risk choice. Its rewards can be high, but the chances of success are small. How do firms organize to take these decisions? What kind of management skills are necessary to take them? What kind of tools and methods are deployed to sustain managerial decision-making in highly volatile environments? These are the central questions on which this course focuses, relying on a combination of lectures, case-based discussion, guest speakers, simulations and group work. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Kurzbeschreibung | The course introduces basic principles, problems and approaches of microeconomics. This provides the students with reflective and contextual knowledge on how societies use scarce resources to produce goods and services and ensure a (fair) distribution. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | The learning objectives of the course are: (1) Students must be able to discuss basic principles, problems and approaches in microeconomics. (2) Students can analyse and explain simple economic principles in a market using supply and demand graphs. (3) Students can contrast different market structures and describe firm and consumer behaviour. (4) Students can identify market failures such as externalities related to market activities and illustrate how these affect the economy as a whole. (5) Students can also recognize behavioural failures within a market and discuss basic concepts related to behavioural economics. (6) Students can apply simple mathematical concepts on economic problems. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | The resources on our planet are finite. The discipline of microeconomics therefore deals with the question of how society can use scarce resources to produce goods and services and ensure a (fair) distribution. In particular, microeconomics deals with the behaviour of consumers and firms in different market forms. Economic considerations and discussions are not part of classical engineering and science study programme. Thus, the goal of the lecture "Principles of Microeconomics" is to teach students how economic thinking and argumentation works. The course should help the students to look at the contents of their own studies from a different perspective and to be able to critically reflect on economic problems discussed in the society. Topics covered by the course are: - Supply and demand - Consumer demand: neoclassical and behavioural perspective - Cost of production: neoclassical and behavioural perspective - Welfare economics, deadweight losses - Governmental policies - Market failures, common resources and public goods - Public sector, tax system - Market forms (competitive, monopolistic, monopolistic competitive, oligopolistic) - International trade | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 101-0524-00L | Lean, Integrated and Digital Project Delivery | W | 4 KP | 3G | D. Hall | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | This course is an introduction to innovative construction project delivery through three strategies: integrated information, integrated organization, and integrated processes. Students will be introduced to project and production management concepts such as Lean Construction, Building Information Modeling, the Tri-Constraint Method, & Integrated Project Delivery. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | By the end of the course, students will be able to plan and manage the lean, integrated, and digital project delivery of a construction project. Students will know they are able to achieve this overall course goal when they can: 1. Apply the fundamental theories of lean production to the context of construction management. This includes the ability to describe the three views of production: transformation, flow and value generation; evaluate the benefits of a pull production system compared to push production systems; evaluate how production variability and uncertainty contributes to work-in-process and 'waste'; and apply the concepts of lean production to several construction management tools including the Last Planner System, Pull Planning, Target Value Design, and Takt Planning. 2. Understand the fundamentals of Virtual Design and Construction and Building Information Modeling. This includes the ability to prepare a model breakdown structure capable of integrating project information for all stakeholders; describe the upcoming transition to a common data environment for BIM that will use platforms such as Autodesk Forge; and describe the barriers to successful implementation of BIM within construction and design firms 3. Plan and schedule an integrated '5D' scope schedule cost model using the Tri-Constraint Method. This includes the ability to understand the TCM algorithm, apply parametric logic to the creation of a virtual model for construction production; and evaluate the limitations of the critical path method when compared to resource- and space-constrained scheduling 4. Evaluate benefits of integrated project governance compared to the organization of traditional construction project delivery systems. This includes the ability to evaluate the risks, benefits and considerations for integrated teams using multi-party relational contracts that cross disciplinary and firm boundaries; and explain to others the 'elements' of integrated projects (e.g. colocation, early involvement of key stakeholders, shared risk/reward, collaborative decision making) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | The construction industry is continually seeking to deliver High-Performance (HP) projects for their clients. HP buildings must meet the criteria of four focus areas – buildability, operability, usability, and sustainability. The project must be buildable, as measured by metrics of cost, schedule, and quality. It must be operable, as measured by the cost of maintaining the facility for the duration of its lifecycle. It must be usable, enabling productivity, efficiency and well-being of those who will inhabit the building. Finally, it must be sustainable, minimizing the use of resources such as energy and water. Buildings that succeed in all four of these areas can be considered HP projects. HP buildings require the integration of building systems. However, the traditional methods of planning and construction do not use an integrated approach. Project fragmentation between many stakeholders is often cited as the cause of poor project outcomes and the reason for poor productivity gains in the construction industry. In response, the construction industry has turned to new forms of integration in order to integrate the processes, organization, and information required for high performance projects. This course investigates emerging trends in the construction industry – e.g. colocation, shared risk/reward contracts, lean construction methods, and use of shared building information models (BIM) for virtual design and construction (VDC) – as a way to achieve HP projects. For integrated processes, students will be introduced to the fundamentals of lean construction management. This course will look at the causes of variability in construction production and teach the theory of lean production for construction. Processes and technologies will be introduced for lean management, such as the last planner system, takt time planning, production tracking, and target value design. For integrated information, students will be introduced to the fundamentals of virtual design and construction, including how to use work breakdown structures and model breakdown structures for building information modeling, and the fundamentals and opportunities for 4D scheduling, clash detection, and “5D and 6D” models. Future technologies emerging to integrate information such as the use of Autodesk Forge will be presented. Students will have the opportunity to discuss barriers in the industry to more advanced implementation of BIM and VDC. For integrated organization, students will study the limitations of the construction industry to effectively organize for complex projects, including the challenges of managing highly interdependent tasks and generating knowledge and learning within large multi-organizational project teams. One emerging approach in North America known as IPD will be studied as a case example. Students will explore the benefits of certain ‘elements’ of IPD such as project team colocation, early involvement of trade contractors, shared risk/reward contracts, and collaborative decision making. The course will also include several guest lectures from industry experts to further demonstrate how these concepts are applied in practice. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Skript | Lecture Presentation slides will be available for viewing and download the day before each lecture. The class will be presented in a "flipped classroom" environment where students will be required to do readings or watch video before class. In-class activities will act to reinforce and expand upon these primary concepts. If possible due to COVID restrictions, students will be expected to attend a half-day workshop on the Last Planner System. The date of this workshop will be provided at a later point in time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 101-0608-00L | Design-Integrated Life Cycle Assessment | W | 3 KP | 2G | G. Habert | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | Currently, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is applied as an ex-post design evaluation of buildings, but rarely used to improve the building during the design process. The aim of this course is to apply LCA during the design of buildings by means of a digital, parametric tool. The necessary fundamentals of the LCA method will be taught following a lecture on demands approach. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | The course will follow two main objectives and a third optional objective, depending on the design projects the students’ choose. At the end of the course, the students will: 1. Know the methodology of LCA 2. Be able to apply LCA in the design process to assess and improve the environmental performance of their projects 3. Be able to use the parametric LCA tool and link it to additional performance assessment tools for a holistic optimisation | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | The course will be structured into two parts, each making up about half of the semester. Part I: Exercises with lectures on demand The first six individual courses will follow the “lectures on demand” approach. Small “hands-on” exercises focusing on one specific aspect will be given out and the necessary background knowledge will be provided in the form of short input lectures when questions arise. The following topics will be discussed during the first part: 1) LCA basic introduction 2) System boundaries, functional unit, end of life 3) Carbon budget and LCA benchmarks 4) BIM-LCA, available calculation tools and databases 5) Integrated analysis of environmental and cost assessment 6) Bio-based carbon storage Part II: Project-based learning In the second part, the students will work on their individual project in groups of three. For the design task, the students will bring their own project and work on improving it. The projects can be chosen depending on the students background and range from buildings to infrastructure projects. Intermediate presentations will ensure the continuous work and make sure all groups are on the same level and learn from each other. During this part, the following hands-on tutorials will be given: 1) Introduction to Rhinoceros 6 and 7 2) Introduction to grasshopper 3) Integrated assessment tools (ladybug tools) 4) Introduction to in-house grasshopper plugin for LCA analysis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Skript | As the course follows a lecture on demand approach, the lecture slides will be provided after each course. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Literatur | A list of the basic literature will be offered on a specific online platform, that could be used by all students attending the lectures. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Prerequisite: Sustainable construction (101-0577-00L). Otherwise a special permisson by the lecturer is required. The students are expected to work out of class as well. The course time will be used by the teachers to answer project-specific questions. The lecture series will be conducted in English and is aimed at students of master's programs, particularly the departments ARCH, BAUG, ITET, MAVT, MTEC and UWIS. No lecture will be given during Seminar week. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| 101-0123-00L | Structural Design | W | 3 KP | 2G | P. Ohlbrock, P. Block, J. Schwartz | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Kurzbeschreibung | The goal of the course is to introduce the civil engineering students to Structural Design, which is regarded as a discipline that relates structural behavior, construction technologies and architectural concepts. The course encourages the students to understand the relationship between the form of a structure and the forces within it by promoting the development of designed projects. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Lernziel | After successfully completing this course the students will able to: 1. Critically question structural design concepts of historical and contemporary references 2. Use graphic statics and strut-and-tie models based on the Theory of Plasticity to describe the load bearing behavior of structures 3. Understand different construction technologies and have an awareness of their potential for structural design 4. Use contemporary digital tools for the design of structures in equilibrium 5. Design an appropriate structural system for a given design task taking into account architectural considerations | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Inhalt | The goal of the course is to introduce the civil engineering students to Structural Design, which is understood as a discipline that relates structural behavior, construction technologies and architectural concepts. Hence, the course encourages the students to develop an intuitive understanding of the relationship between the form of a structure and the forces within it by promoting the development of designed projects, in which the static and architectural aspects come together. The course is structured in two main parts, each developed in half of a semester: a mainly theoretical one (including the teaching of graphic statics) and a mainly applied one (focused on the development of a design project by the students using digital form-finding tools). Theory: Graphic statics is a graphical method developed by Prof. Karl Culmann and firstly published in 1864 at ETH Zurich. In this approach to structural analysis and design, geometric construction techniques are used to visualize the relation between the geometry of a structure and the forces acting in and on it, represented by geometrically dependent form and force diagrams. The course will firstly review the main principles of graphic statics through a series of frontal lectures and discuss the relationship to analytical statics. Graphic statics is then used as an operative tool to design structures in equilibrium based on the lower bound theorem of the Theory of Plasticity. Additionally, the course will introduce contemporary methodologies and tools (parametric CAD software) for the interactive application of equilibrium modelling in the form of short workshops. The students will familiarize with the topic by solving exercises and confronting themselves with simple design tasks. Design Project: Specific structural design approaches and design methodologies based on graphic statics and references from construction history will be introduced to the students by means of seminars and workshops. By developing a design project, the students will apply these concepts and techniques in order to become proficient with open design tasks (such as the design of a bridge, a large span hall or a tower). At the end of the semester, the students present their projects to a jury of internal and external critics in a final review. The main criterion of evaluation is the students' ability to integrate architectural considerations into their structural design. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
