After successful completion of the course, students are able to plan and implement a building survey independently . Furthermore, they should have knowledge in the documentation of historical buildings / constructions, their analysis in terms of construction history and the relevant presentation of the results.
In introductory lectures, the various measurement methods from manual measurement to the application of high-tech equipment are presented. A number of exercises one based on each other are coupled with the lectures and deal with different problems of building survey from preparatory planning to implementation.
The following methods are used:
- Documentation by hand measurement and measurement with the total station, supplemented by photo documentation and detailed drawings
- Production of architectural plans out ot the building survey data
- Catalog-like compilation of the information in the so called book of rafters
- Compilation of all results in a portfolio
