Objectives of the Course O1. Distinguishing the hierarchical relations between building materials, components, and elements.
O2. Recognizing the building materials and their basic properties.
O3. Specifying the different uses of the building materials in the buildings.
O4. Analyzing the relationship between building material selection and architectural design concept.
Course Content The “Materials & Behaviors” course is structured on the theme “Introduction to Materialization” to introduce the building materials. It focuses on the building materials through traditional, conventional, and innovative perspectives to discuss the developing and changing properties and usage possibilities of building materials. It starts with defining and classifying building materials, components, and elements. Then, the basic properties and general characteristics of the building materials are explained by focusing on the environmental factors, user, and performance requirements. The building materials are discussed in detail based on the building material selection criteria, the relationship between building material selection and architectural design concept, and the materials' usage areas in the building element systems.
