Building technology and building physics, 20 YH credits, gives you knowledge and understanding of how a property's structure and construction affect energy use. You go deeper into building materials, house-building techniques and the building physics processes that govern the transport of heat and moisture. The course trains you to identify and analyse building physics problems, carry out relevant calculations and propose measures that improve energy use.
The purpose of the course is to provide in-depth knowledge of building materials, house-building techniques and building physics processes concerning the transport of heat and moisture. The goal of the course is that students will be able to identify and analyse simpler building physics problems and have knowledge of the factors that govern community planning: human, historical and environmental.

Properties of common building materials and their effect on energy use.
Basic techniques for how buildings are constructed.
Building physics processes that govern the transport of heat and moisture in structures.
Identifying building physics problems, making calculations and proposing energy-improving measures.
The course is aimed at YH students in energy technology who want to understand the link between building construction, building physics and energy use.
