This subject consists of lectures and practical training, weekly 2 hours each. By means of the lectures the paper knowledge is shown according to the schedule. During the trainings the students solve a design task from concept making to the building drawings in teams by means of information and consultation. Connecting to their design the students make energetic calculations as well. They have also personal tasks in which they have to do researches.
