General information:

Category	Scientific-professional
Scientific or art field	Upravljanje rizikom od katastrofalnih događaja i požara
Interdisciplinary	Yes
ECTS	7

Educational goal:

The knowledge of basic characteristics of the built environment (structure, materialization) and urban infrastructure.

Educational outcome:

Acquired theoretical and applied knowledge enables identification of different factors in the built environment from the aspect of applied design solutions and materialization of the objects, as well as consideration of the risk factors concerning urban infrastructure in the case of catastrophic events and fire. Acquired knowledge also enables formulation of suggestion for preventive measures, as well as consideration and characterization of existing solutions of preventive protection of the objects and infrastructure in the case of catastrophic events and fire.

Course content:

Typology and classification of the construction materials and construction, planning and design of object, with an emphasis on architectural-civil engineering preventive measures of object safety in the conditions of catastrophic events and fire and behavior of construction materials and constructions in fire. Introduction to the basic elements of municipal system and their protection: hydrotechnical systems, water supply systems, drainage and treatment system, flood control system, infrastructure complexes, corridors and facilities, energy system, power supply, power distribution networks, heat supply system, heating systems, gas systems, telephone and cable distribution systems, undeveloped land, underground objects, subways, tunnels, pedestrian passes, underground garages. Case studies – event analysis from the previous period. Analysis of the planed objects – project documentation, analysis of the built objects and consideration of applied conceptual solutions from the aspect of protection against catastrophic events and fire.

Teaching methods:

Lectures, Term papers, presentations, consultations.
