Study of the following building elements: windows and doors, floors, stairs and ramps. The main types and their constitution are analyzed. Thermal and sound insulation solutions. Sound absorption.
Sustainable Development Goals
Learning Goals
From the knowledge acquired in the relevant preceding curricular units, the student must idealize and order the different parts of a construction in a permanent dialogue between the materials, the different systems, the specific needs of the building and the final architectural result sought.

Teaching Methods
The course is organised into theoretical-practical classes, which are organised into oral presentations, exercises and discussions, reports and technical visits.
Assessment
The classification in this curricular unit may result from one of the following assessment systems: continuous assessment or final exam.
Continuous assessment by frequency: Final Grade = (0.6xF) + (0.4xT)
Assessment by regular exam: Final Grade = (0.7xEN) + (0.3xT)
Assessment by appeal period exam, special period exam and extraordinary period exam: Final Grade = (0.7xEN) + (0.3xT)
On what:
Final Grade - cannot be less than 10 points.
F ? 2 frequencies whose arithmetic average cannot be less than 10 points and the minimum grade in each frequency cannot be less than 7.5 values.
T - 2 works whose arithmetic average cannot be less than 10 points.
EN ? exam whose minimum grade is 10 points.
E ? exam whose minimum grade is 10 points.
Attendance in classes is mandatory (75% of classes).
