Objectives of the Course
|
Explaining and describing the design methods and approaches to the transit architecture both from technical and theoretical aspects.
Judging and using the basic terminology in addition to interpreting international and national standards, design guidelines, principles, legislation and other related texts.
Discussing the importance and the impact of transit architecture design in urban scale.
Developing a critical framework to the existing design methodologies in transit design and design verification tools such as pedestrian simulation tools.

Course Content
|
Transit buildings have to create an exterior image and prominent profile to its users so that passengers can easily find them while providing all the required safety, accessibility and operational design considerations. The students will have a chance to evaluate the building type from both perspectives and develop a more advanced approach on transit architecture.
