Today’s Architectural education system is crammed with too many subjects within a short time, leaving very less time for hands on learning. It is an overview of the real world that the student will be facing once; he/she graduates from the Institution. The teacher therefore has to develop and come out with innovative solutions to overcome this problem and bridge the gap between the demand of the profession and the prevalent system. It has to give pointers to the students and equip them with the “F1” i.e. the help command in our profession. They, as individuals should be able to derive and adapt to the changing conditions and the plethora of varied situations that life will present them in their future, may it be new technology, or new materials or practices. This paper aims at finding different approaches towards education of Construction technology. The Objective of this paper is to formulate various approaches in teaching building construction technology subject and to find various experimentation methods to get the desired outcome. The Methodology for the proposed research shall be experimental exercises, 3D model generation and software interventions for understanding the subjects.

Abstract


Today’s Architectural education system is crammed with too many subjects within a short time, leaving very less time for hands on learning. It is an overview of the real world that the student will be facing once; he/she graduates from the Institution. The teacher therefore has to develop and come out with innovative solutions to overcome this problem and bridge the gap between the demand of the profession and the prevalent system. It has to give pointers to the students and equip them with the “F1” i.e. the help command in our profession. They, as individuals should be able to derive and adapt to the changing conditions and the plethora of varied situations that life will present them in their future, may it be new technology, or new materials or practices. This paper aims at finding different approaches towards education of Construction technology. The Objective of this paper is to formulate various approaches in teaching building construction technology subject and to find various experimentation methods to get the desired outcome. The Methodology for the proposed research shall be experimental exercises, 3D model generation and software interventions for understanding the subjects.
