PROJECT 1: SKELETAL CONSTRUCTION  (TEMPORARY BUS SHELTER)
Skeletal construction is one of the basis of architecture since the emergence of modernism. It is widely used for building support systems, making it vital to our knowledge in this field. 
 
In a group of five, we are to construct a bus shelter in the scale of 1:5 to accommodate 5-6 people, demonstrating our knowledge of skeletal frames and its joints.

PROJECT 2: UNDERSTANDING FORCES IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
A building normally comprises of several different types of constructional systems, either due to its function or building code requirements. As designers, it is very important that you understand when and where each of the different type of constructional system is used. 
 
Today, tensile and grid shell construction methods are becoming widely used structures for building support. It provides the required load bearing resistance and aesthetics required by designers. 
​

In a group of three, we studied the Dance Pavilion in Cologne, Germany designed by architect Frei Otto.
