Form finding

This course provide students with a comprehensive exploration of the powerful design and computational tools known as Rhino and Grasshopper. Through hands-on instruction and practical applications, participants gain an in-depth understanding of how to utilize these software programs to create and manipulate complex shapes specifically tailored for architectural purposes. By harnessing the capabilities of Rhino, a versatile 3D modeling software, and Grasshopper, a visual programming language, students learn how to conceptualize, design, and calculate intricate architectural forms with precision and efficiency. These courses cover a wide range of techniques, including parametric modeling, algorithmic design, and generative modeling, enabling students to express their creativity while simultaneously addressing various functional and aesthetic considerations. Whether it's designing cutting-edge facades, exploring innovative spatial configurations, or optimizing structural elements, these courses empower students to push the boundaries of architectural design using the advanced capabilities of Rhino and Grasshopper.

BIM Modeling

This BIMaHEAD course contains 5 working packages. Each Working Package deals with a building construction detail, which is first worked out in virtual space and then translated into its own BIM-capable file format. This is done by translating the details shown into a custom design in a CAD program of choice. The results are then uploaded as an .ifc file and evaluated in the group.

Clash Detection

The Clash Detection Module is part of the BIMaHEAD Course. The Module provides students with advanced knowledge and skills in Building Information Modelling (BIM) focused on detecting clashes and collisions in AEC projects. By detecting errors in projects at the early stage of design, engineers save resources, materials, costs, and time and by that, they contribute to a more sustainable built environment.

The Module introduces theory and practices through sequences of tasks to gain skills needed for future architects and engineers in the AEC sector.
It is designed to lead a learner through a game with levels to be achieved and scores to be collected. Successful completion of the Module may be rewarded with a certificate.
