本课程的重点在于为学生在当前环境中进行可靠建筑活动提供所需的工具。使他们熟悉目前进行可靠实践中使用的材料，及其与组合最相关的特性。本课程还将向学生介绍一些未经测试，但相信在不久将来会被使用的材料。最后，通过了解那些想法在建筑领域的发展，该课程向学生提出挑战，让学生进一步认识可靠或可持续的建筑设计。
This course will focus on providing students with the tools needed to practice responsible architecture in a contemporary context. It will familiarize students with the materials currently used in responsible practice, as well as the material properties most relevant to assembly. The course will also introduce students to materials that are untested but hold promise for future usage. Finally, the course will challenge students to refine their understanding of responsible or sustainable design practice by looking at the evolution of those ideas within the field of architecture.
