Building Technology and Construction

Building Technology and Construction is the practical and technical discipline focused on translating architectural designs into physical reality. It encompasses the study and application of materials, structural systems, building envelopes, and environmental controls (such as HVAC, plumbing, and electrical), alongside the management of the construction process itself, including scheduling, logistics, and on-site assembly. This field serves as the critical bridge between the architect's vision and a tangible, functional structure, ensuring that buildings are not only buildable but also safe, durable, efficient, and sustainable throughout their lifecycle.
