MIM 346 - Taşıyıcı Sistem Tasarımı II

The course aims to provide an understanding of the behavior of volumetric (three-dimensional) structural systems based on ground conditions, materials, forms, and load conditions, and to develop the ability to design such systems in accordance with architectural projects. Another objective of the course is to evaluate the possibilities for adapting and developing traditional Turkish building systems in a rational manner to meet contemporary needs.

This course focuses on examining the principles of three-dimensional structural systems in architecture through examples and on developing structural system designs that are compatible with architectural projects.

• Midterm Examination: The date, time, and venue of the midterm examination will be announced by the Dean’s Office.
• Practical Exercises: Practical exercises will be carried out in accordance with the topics covered during the course. Submission deadlines for each exercise will be announced separately.
• Quizzes: Quizzes will be announced one week in advance, and the announcement will specify the course content to be covered.
• Final Submission: The final submission will consist of six practical applications completed throughout the semester. These applications must be integrated into the student's architectural design project developed within the concurrent Architectural Design Studio. For each application topic, students are required to prepare one A3 or B2 presentation board that explains both the theoretical framework of the application and its implementation within the architectural project. Final submissions must be submitted both digitally and in printed format.
• Final Assessment Policy: As the final assessment is based on a comprehensive project submission rather than a written examination, there is no make-up (resit) examination for this course.

1. Attendance: According to the University Regulations, students who fail to attend at least 70% of the total course hours will receive a grade of DZ (Absent) and will automatically fail the course.

   Late Arrival: Students are expected not only to attend class but also to arrive on time. Please note that three late arrivals are considered equivalent to one full absence. A late arrival is defined as entering the classroom after attendance has been taken by the instructor and more than 10 minutes after the scheduled start of the class.

   Seeking Assistance: Students are encouraged to ask questions during class or office hours and to seek assistance whenever necessary. Obtaining timely support is an important part of the learning process and is strongly recommended.

   Academic Integrity: All coursework submitted for assessment must represent your own original work and effort. Acts of academic misconduct, including plagiarism and cheating, are subject to the University's Academic Integrity and Disciplinary Regulations and may result in disciplinary action and the corresponding sanctions.

   Assessment Policy: The assessment methods and grading criteria specified in this syllabus are final. No additional assignments, examinations, or make-up assessments will be offered for the purpose of improving course grades.
