BUILDING SYSTEMS DESIGN
INSTRUCTOR: ENGR. JUDY-ANN A. ESCUÑA
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The lecture course will focus on developing knowledge of building systems,
including architectural design building materials and construction
techniques, and will foster the skills required to adopt a building systems
approach compliant to the National Building Code and its referral codes. The
students’ developed knowledge of building systems will also include
understanding of different types and applications of building materials and
diverse construction techniques. Sustainability principles’ impact on the
property lifecycle, and how these will integrate and apply to skills and
knowledge to industry based case studies will also be examined.
COURSE OUTCOMES:
At the end of the course, the students must be able to:
1. Identify appropriate provisions of the National Building Code and its referral codes as these
apply to buildings;
2. Codes and Regulations: Ability to design sites, facilities, and systems that are responsive to
relevant codes and regulations, and include the principles of lifesafety and accessibility
standards;
3. Technical Documentation: Ability to make technically clear drawings, prepare outline
specifications, and construct models illustrating and identifying the assembly of materials,
systems, and components appropriate for a building design;
4. Building Materials and Assemblies: Understanding of the basic principles used in the
appropriate selection of interior and exterior construction materials, finishes, products,
components, and assemblies based on their inherent performance, including environmental
impact and reuse;
5. Building Service Systems: Understanding of the basic principles and appropriate application and
performance of building service systems, including lighting, mechanical, plumbing, electrical,
