CIVIL-444 / 4 credits

Teacher: Laloui Lyesse

Language: English


Summary

Energy geostructures are an innovative technology that couple the structural role of foundations and the heating/cooling role of geothermal heat exchangers. The goal of the course is to provide a comprehensive understanding of the structural, geotechnical and energy behaviour.

Assessment methods

Evaluation:

  • Written exam (theoretical questions and exercices): 60% of the final mark
  • 5 assigned exercices: 10% of the final mark
  • Design project: 30% of the final mark (20% Desin project Report, 10% Design project presentation), group work
