RURAL BUILDINGS DESIGN
Academic Year 2022/2023 - Teacher: Giovanni CASCONEExpected Learning Outcomes
Knowledge of construction elements technology and preliminary design, Design of plants and equipments for agricultural buildings, Bioclimatic building design, Design and supervision of agricultural buildings in relation to the Italian national standards.
Course Structure
Frontal teaching, exercises, technical visits.
Learning assessment consists in an oral and/or written ongoing test and a final oral test.
If teaching is given in a mixed formula or remotely, necessary changes may be introduced to what was previously stated in order to comply with the privided and reported syllabus.
Learning assessment may also be carried out on line, should the conditions require it.
As a guarantee of equal opportunities and in compliance with current laws, interested students can ask for a personal interview in order to plan any compensatory and/or dispensatory measures, based on their specific needs and on teaching objectives of the discipline.
It is also possible to ask the departmental contacts of CInAP (Center for Active and Participatory Integration - Services for Disabilities and/or DSAs), in the persons of professors Giovanna Tropea Garzia and Anna De Angelis.
Detailed Course Content
Knowledge of construction elements technology: reinforced concrete structures, steel structures, bearing masonry, foundations, slabs, roofs. Sciece and techniques of constructions: load analysis, design stresses. Design of rural buildings in relation to the Italian national standards. The rural house. The bioclimatic design of rural houses. Elements for recovery and reuse of agricultural buildings. Economic and administrative documents in support of agricultural buildings designs: technical report, list of prices, price analysis, bill of quantities and costs, tender specifications. Plants and equipments design of cooling system for animal houses. Plants and equipments design for heating system and cooling system for greenhouses.
Exercises: Structural preliminary design of structural elements of agricultural buildings, Economic and administrative documents in support of the graphic design carried out in the course on "Agricultural buildings" (2nd year of the degree course on "Agrucultural science and technologies" - L25).

Learning Assessment
Learning Assessment Procedures
Interim written/oral test and final oral test with discussion of the exercise carried out during the course regarding the drafting of the economic and administrative elaborations accompanying the graphic design of a rural building
Verification of learning is through oral examination. Evaluation of the student's preparation will be based on the following criteria: ability to learn and level of depth of the topics covered, properties of synthesis and exposition, and ability to reason.
Verification of learning can be carried out also by telematic means if the conditions should make it necessary.
Grading is expressed in thirtieths according to the following pattern:
Ineligible
Subject knowledge and understanding: significant deficiencies, significant inaccuracies
Ability to analyze and synthesize: irrelevant, inability to synthesize
Use of references: completely inappropriate.
18-20
Subject knowledge and understanding: at threshold level, obvious imperfections
Ability to analyze and synthesize: barely sufficient ability
Use of references: barely appropriate.
21-23
Knowledge and understanding topic: routine knowledge
Ability to analyze and synthesize: is able to analyze and synthesize correctly. argues logically and coherently
Use of references: uses standard references.
24-26
Subject knowledge and understanding: good knowledge
Analysis and synthesis skills: Has good analysis and synthesis skills. topics are expressed consistently
Use of references: uses standard references.
27-29
Knowledge and understanding topic: knowledge more than good
Analytical and synthesis skills: has considerable analytical and synthesis skills
Use of references: has deepened understanding of topics.
30-30 e lode
Knowledge and understanding topic: knowledge very good
