MABY4200 Building Physics and Climate Adaptation of Buildings Emneplan

A grade scale with five grades from A to E for pass and F for fail is used as the assessment form.

All the exam papers will be assessed by an internal examiner. A selection of at least 25% of the exam papers will be assessed by an external examiner. An external examiner will also be used when there is doubt about whether an exam paper should be awarded a pass grade. The grades awarded to exam papers assessed by the external examiner will be used to determine the level of all exam papers.

The teaching consists of lectures, demonstration of measurement methods and weekly exercises. In addition, a project assignment will be given in which the students are to perform analytical and simulation-based calculations of the performance of building components in connection with the different building physics phenomena.

Three of four individual exercises must be approved before the student can take the exam. Students who fail to meet the coursework requirements can be given up to one re-submission opportunity before the exam.

Type of assessment:

1) Individual written exam (three hours), weighted 60 %

2) Project report in groups of 2-3 students (approx. 20-30 pages), weighted 40 %

All assessment parts must be awarded a pass grade (E or better) in order for the student to pass the course. Students must be awarded an E or better on their project report to be allowed to take the written exam.

Assessment parts: 1) and 2) may be appealed.

Assessment part:

1) All printed and written aids and a calculator that cannot be used to communicate with others.

2) All aids are permitted.
