  • Sound

Learning outcome

After completing the course, students should be able to use relevant regulations to document buildings' energy needs and be able to assess the extent to which the building's climate screen may be exposed to moisture problems. Furthermore, they must be able to carry out sound technical calculations.

This results in the following learning outcomes:

Knowledge:

  • Have basic knowledge of building physical contexts within heat transfer, moisture and sound.
  • Be familiar with technical authority requirements related to the topics, including related requirements to indoor climate.

Skills:

  • Assess current building requirements.
  • Conduct assessment and calculation of heat and moisture transport in building parts.
  • Calculate energy and effect demand for a building.

General competence:

  • Communicate professionally with peers
  • Assess the ethical aspects of selected technical solutions.
